The San Francisco 49ers have been busy this offseason, signing another offensive weapon in Chris Conley Monday.

Reports surfaced Monday afternoon that the 49ers and Conley had agreed on a one-year deal for the 2023 season. Further contract details have not been released, as a veteran minimum contract is expected for the player.

NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport was first with the news. The team confirmed the deal thereafter.

The #49ers have announced the following roster moves.

Chris Conley, 30, has been a journeyman wideout in the NFL, playing for four different teams. He has spent time with the Kansas City Chiefs, Houston Texans, Jacksonville Jaguars and Tennessee Titans. The best season of his came with the Jaguars in 2019, racking up 775 receiving yards and five touchdowns.

Most recently, Conley played with the Titans, appearing in seven games for the team last season. Joining a group loaded with playmakers, Conley will have to work hard in the offseason to secure a roster spot in the fall.

“A 30-year-old native of Dallas, GA, Conley attended the University of Georgia where he played four seasons (2011-14) and finished wtih 177 receptions for 1,938 yards and 20 touchdowns,” per a team statement.

San Francisco also announced the re-signings of WR Jauan Jennings and defensive lineman Kerry Hyder Jr. Monday. The former officially signed his one-year contract tender, allowing him to be on the roster for the start of the offseason program.
