Tampa Bay Buccaneers restricted free agent DE Jacquies Smith is visiting with the San Francisco 49ers, per Ian Rapoport of
NFL Media.
Smith was signed by the Miami Dolphins as an undrafted free agent in 2012. In addition to the Buccaneers, he has spent time with the New York Jets and Buffalo Bills. In 2016, he suffered an ACL tear during the Buccaneers' first game of the season – a matchup against the Atlanta Falcons.
In the two seasons prior to his injury, Smith had 39 tackles, 13.5 sacks, three passes defended, and four forced fumbles. He was not a starter with the Buccaneers but was considered to be among the team's most effective pass-rushers.
Earlier this month, the Buccaneers placed an original-round tender on Smith. While the defensive lineman is a restricted free agent, he was undrafted. That means that a team like the 49ers could sign Smith without giving up draft compensation. He carries a salary of just under $1.8 million, according to
Spotrac.com.

49ers considered trading Mike McGlinchey last year
Mike McGlinchey received a life-changing payday, signing a five-year, $87.5 million deal with the Denver Broncos. The offensive tackle has known for a while that he would not return to the San Francisco 49ers, the only NFL team he has played for and the one that made him the No. 9 overall pick in 2018.
General manager John Lynch and head coach Kyle Shanahan made it clear to McGlinchey that he was likely playing his final months for the team. There was too much money invested in other spots, and the 49ers knew they couldn't compete with other interested teams.
Behind the scenes, Lynch and Shanahan kept McGlinchey in the loop of what the team was thinking, and everything pointed to the tackle playing elsewhere in 2023 … maybe even
