Savage is back again with the 49ers after clearing waivers, the team announced on Friday afternoon.

San Francisco initially added Savage to the 53-man roster as a third and emergency quarterback on October 16. It was the first time of the Kyle Shanahan era that the 49ers carried three quarterbacks on the active roster. Savage was waived on October 20 before being re-signed on October 22.
Savage entered the NFL when the Houston Texans made him a fourth-round draft pick out of Pittsburgh in 2014. His best season came last year when he completed 56.1 percent of his passes for 1,412 yards with five touchdowns and six interceptions.
