The San Francisco 49ers are bringing back tight end Ross Dwelley to the Bay Area on a one-year deal after a season with the Atlanta Falcons, the team announced Friday.
The 30-year-old went undrafted in 2018 before signing with the 49ers and remaining there for his first six seasons.
Dwelley was initially cut at the end of training camp before signing with San Francisco's practice squad. The San Diego product was promoted to the active roster and made his NFL debut on October 15, 2018, in a road loss to the Green Bay Packers. Dwelley finished his rookie season with two catches for 14 yards in 11 games.
