49ers re-sign Kerry Hyder
The 49ers have added another piece to their defensive line. According to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network, San Francisco is re-signing defensive lineman Kerry Hyder.Bringing back Hyder is a solid move for the Niners. The veteran defensive lineman has the ability to play inside or outside, versatility the 49ers covet.
Hyder’s best work has come under the tutelage of San Francisco defensive line coach Kris Kocurek. While together in Detroit, Hyder posted eight sacks in 2016. He then struggled after moving on in free agency. Reunited in 2020, Hyder replaced an injured Nick Bosa in the 49ers lineup an finished with a career high 8.5 sacks.
