The San Francisco 49ers signed tight end Ross Dwelley to a one-year contract on Friday, bringing back the former special teams player who spent his first six NFL seasons with the team.
Contract terms were not disclosed.
Earlier this week, the 49ers signed All-Pro tight end George Kittle to a four-year contract extension worth up to $76.4 million, making him the highest-paid player at the position.
Dwelley, 30, had signed with the 49ers as an undrafted free agent in April 2018 and has played 101 regular-season games (17 starts) for San Francisco (2018-23) and the Atlanta Falcons (2024). He has 45 career receptions on 61 targets for 523 yards and five touchdowns.
He was targeted one time in 17 games with the Falcons and made the catch for 5 yards. He played on 37 percent of the special teams snaps (166).
In his most recent season with San Francisco in 2023, Dwelley appeared in 12 games and played 67 percent of the special teams snaps (206).
