The San Francisco 49ers today announced that the team has waived defensive lineman Alex Barrett and cornerback Parnell Motley.
One roster spot will likely be used to add defensive end Jordan Willis, once the trade with the New York Jets becomes official this week. The other could be used for cornerback K'Waun Williams' return from injured reserve or a similar move.
The 49ers Communication staff provided the following rundown.
Barrett (6-2, 250) was promoted to the active roster from the team's practice squad on October 7, 2020, where he appeared in three games and registered two tackles.
Motley (6-0, 180) was originally claimed off waivers by the 49ers from the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on October 13, 2020. He was inactive for the team's Week 7 game at New England.
