He has NOT been released, they are working on a restructure.

God I hope they restructure, hes still a good CB, well the best one we have at least. It would be interesting to see both Clements and Asoumgha together.

Because we have big Dix.

But the twitter feed is gospel. It says he's being released! Everyone believes it!



In all seriousness, a restructure is a great idea. A Clements-Asomugha duo would be terrific, and Spencer is a great nickel back.

All the "experts" are taking back their earlier claims

@JasonLaCanfora 49ers have not informed Clements he will be released. Not saying he won't be a cap casualty at some point but nothing yet

Oh yea!!! Imagine Clements with a FS rolled his way. Be aggressive, make plays that's all the coaching staff would be saying to him. Still feel he has the instincts and talent for that.

Clements with FS help and allow Mays to play in the box on Aso' side.

Matt Maiocco of CSN Bay Area reports that the 49ers have not yet cut ties with CB Nate Clements.

Maiocco concedes that he's "back-pedaling" after initially reporting Clements had been informed of his release. NFL Network's Jason La Canfora and ESPN's Adam Schefter both report Clements remains on the 49ers' roster and has not been told otherwise. Yet. Clements' $15 million in salary and bonuses is still extremely hefty for a cornerback whose performance is no longer elite. We'd still expect him to be cut if the 49ers "settle" for a corner like Johnathan Joseph if they don't land Nnamdi Asomugha.

lol he's gonna get cut sooner than later, its a formality

My guess is the 49ers want to wait until Nnamdi makes a decision on where he will play in 2011. If he signs with another team, then the 49ers may make a more serious effort to restructure Clements's contract.

If he signs with the 49ers, then Clements will get cut.

I dont want him to be cut, just restructure. He and Nnamdi, plus Spencer is very solid. You need it in todays league.
