The San Francisco 49ers announced on Monday that the team has signed offensive tackle Shon Coleman to a one-year extension. He was scheduled to become an unrestricted free agent on Wednesday.
Coleman, 28, landed on injured reserve in August after suffering a fractured fibula and dislocated ankle during the 49ers' preseason opener against the Dallas Cowboys. He was expected to be the team's swing tackle and the first player inserted should Joe Staley or Mike McGlinchey exit a game. Both missed multiple games this past season due to injuries.
The Cleveland Browns made Coleman a third-round selection out of Auburn in 2016. Coleman has 23 game appearances and 16 starts through his three NFL seasons. San Francisco acquired Coleman by trading a seventh-round pick in the 2019 draft to Cleveland on August 31, 2018.
