NBC Sports’ Matt Maiocco reported that the San Francisco 49ers are working toward signing veteran wide receiver Chris Conley to a one-year contract.
On Thursday, when we were talking about which unrestricted free agents the Niners should bring back, Conley was the one who made the most sense.
As of now, Conley would be WR4 on the team now that Ray-Ray McCloud is an Atlanta Falcon. But his role and where Conley earned his money came on special teams. Kyle Shanahan raved about Conley’s speed, which made it seem like he was one of the faster players on the team.
