49ers in Five: Is Jason Verrett still a good bet?

Everything you need to know in about five minutes

The 49ers announced the signing of Jason Verrett to a one-year contract yesterday, and the deal mainly was applauded as a low-risk, high-reward move. While that may be true, it also doesn’t automatically make it a good bet.

There is no denying that in 2020, Jason Verrett had one of the best seasons a 49ers cornerback has ever had. Except for one game against Stefon Diggs, Verrett was close to untouchable most of the year. His end zone interception against the Rams is still one of the best plays I’ve seen a 49ers corner make in years.
