49ers must sign free agent who spurned them to address glaring roster weakness

The San Francisco 49ers have a good sense of their 53-man roster after making cuts and shuffling deck chairs around.

Yet, the linebacker position is still a glaring roster weakness, which is why they should sign Eric Kendricks.

That name may be very familiar to Niners fans since Kendricks reportedly had a deal in place with San Francisco prior to the 2024 season, but he decided to sign with the Dallas Cowboys instead. His decision to spurn the Niners did not have to do with him hating San Francisco or anything, it more had to do with his connection to defensive coordinator Mike Zimmer in Dallas.
