The 49ers new regime appears to know a good thing when they see it. After being released by the New England Patriots last November, the team signed the pass rusher, Cassius Marsh to a contract.
Marsh contributed as the LEO linebacker for the team as they were entering a stretch where they won five of their last seven games. He also played quite nicely on special teams as well. However, for a team that was desperately in need of more putting pressure on opposing quarterbacks, Marsh’s 11.9% pressure stat on his pass rushes, he was a welcome addition.
