Here are today’s reserve/futures contracts handed out:
Cincinnati Bengals
- TE Nick Bowers, QB Jake Browning, DE Owen Carney, OT Devin Cochran, S Yusuf Corker, DT Domenique Davis, G Nate Gilliam, TE Tanner Hudson, DE Raymond Johnson, LB Keandre Jones, WR Kwamie Lassiter, CB Marvell Tell
New York Jets
San Francisco 49ers
- DL Alex Barrett, OL Alfredo Gutierrez, S Tayler Hawkins, OL Keith Ismael, DB Qwuantrezz Knight, WR Tay Martin, WR Dazz Newsome, OL Jason Poe, LB Curtis Robinson, T Leroy Watson
I am so glad the 49ers were able to keep Poe, Barrett, and Knight, all three could very well make next season’s roster, and help contribute as quality depth.
Barrett has already shown he’s more than a capable backup DL, and I’m excited to see him after another offseason to grow and get better..
Poe is just an incredible jumbo athlete, and would be an unique weapon as a jumbo package FB/TE, and he’s a solid interior OL too due to his ability to maintain such a low center of gravity…
Knight really showed off some skills as a safety this pre-season, and if not for “getting hurt” might have been able to get in some playing time this year. I fully expect him to be a solid contributor in ST next season, at the very least.
