The 49ers made Burbridge a sixth-round draft pick out of Michigan State in 2016. He appeared in 16 games with three starts during his rookie campaign and caught seven passes for 88 yards.
Burbridge, who was seen last year as a potential key special-teams contributor, spent the 2017 season on injured reserve due to a hamstring injury.
