Five cornerbacks the 49ers should look to acquire after Verrett’s injury

The 49ers fear they’ve lost star cornerback Jason Verrett for the season. The defense is already thin at the position as starter Emmanuel Moseley recovers from a knee injury himself.

Niners Head coach Kyle Shanahan said that Moseley might return next week against the Eagles. However, Shanahan seems to be big on his players practicing throughout the week. So we’ll have to keep an eye out to see whether Moseley practices this week.

Even with a healthy Moseley, San Francisco still must replace Jason Verrett. That wasn’t the reason they signed Josh Norman. Now that Norman figures to start, the team still must find another cornerback.
