49ers interested in Ravens FB Kyle Juszczyk
According to Tom Pelissero of USA TODAY Sports, the San Francisco 49ers are among the teams showing interest in Baltimore Ravens FB
Kyle Juszczyk.
The 49ers didn't have a fullback on the roster last season. Bruce Miller was the team's fullback the previous season and was trying to convert to a tight end in Chip Kelly's offense, but legal problems led the 49ers to release Miller a week prior to the start of the regular season.
Juszczyk, who turns 26 in April, was a fourth-round selection out of Harvard by Baltimore in the 2013 NFL Draft. He was selected to the Pro Bowl last season and was a 2016 First-Team All-Pro.
