According to Ian Rapoport of NFL Media, the San Francisco 49ers are signing free-agent wide receiver
Chris Conley to a one-year deal. 49ers players are reporting to Santa Clara today for the start of the team's offseason program. Conley was among the receivers who
recently visited with the Niners.
The Kansas City Chiefs made Conley (6-3, 205) a third-round selection (No. 76 overall) out of Georgia in 2015. He registered four receptions for 46 yards through seven game appearances (one start) with the Tennessee Titans last season, per
Pro Football Reference.
Conley, 30, started last season with the Houston Texans but was released on October 4, 2022. He signed with the Chiefs' practice squad two days later before being claimed by the Titans on October 25, 2022.
Conley has caught 217 passes for 2,853 yards and 15 touchdowns in 109 game appearances (63 starts) through his eight NFL seasons, spending time with the Chiefs, Jacksonville Jaguars, Texans, and Titans.

Why one analyst is worried for Brock Purdy if 49ers trade Brandon Aiyuk
San Francisco 49ers quarterback Brock Purdy achieved a remarkable feat in 2023, setting a single-season franchise record with 4,280 passing yards. This accomplishment is noteworthy, considering the illustrious quarterbacks who have graced the organization's history.
