Free-agent cornerback Leon Hall reportedly agreed to terms on a contract with the San Francisco 49ers on Tuesday, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter.

Hall appeared in 12 games for the New York Giants in 2016, recording 31 combined tackles and intercepting one pass. Pro Football Focus graded him as the 44th-best qualified cornerback (75.9) in the league.

The 32-year-old has never been the same player since suffering an Achilles injury that limited him to five games in 2013. Prior to the injury, he was consistently one of the better corners in the NFL despite never reaching the Pro Bowl.
