49ers will compete for WR Drew Bennett
According to Michael Silver of SI.com, the San Francisco 49ers are still one of many teams that will compete for wide receiver Drew Bennett's services when free agency begins at 9pm Pacific Time tonight.
The other interested teams include the New England Patriots, Atlanta Falcons, Minnesota Vikings, Oakland Raiders and New York Giants. The Tennessee Titans, Bennett's original team, are also expected to try and resign Bennett.
"I'm up for it," Bennett said. "I'm gonna play my ass off for someone."
