It’s official: Hayne makes 49ers’ 53-man roster

This should go over well Down Under: As expected, running back Jarryd Hayne made the 49ers’ 53-man roster.

The 49ers haven’t announced their final roster cuts, but the former Australian rugby league star and football novice revealed the news on his Twitter account:

IT ALWAYS WORKS OUT! I thank GOD for WHAT HE has done and going to do on this incredible journey!! I'm on the 53 MAN ROSTER FOR THE #49ers.

The 49ers’ decision to keep Hayne, of course, hardly counts as a surprise given his stellar preseason performance.
