27 Aug
Summary
- 49ers cut two QBs, creating need at QB3 role
- Signed Adrian Martinez, former Jets QB, to practice squad
- Martinez was undrafted in 2023 but had college success
In a move to bolster their quarterback depth, the San Francisco 49ers have signed Adrian Martinez to their practice squad. This comes after the team cut two quarterbacks earlier this week, creating an opening at the QB3 role.
Martinez, who went undrafted in the 2023 NFL Draft, had a successful college career at Nebraska and Kansas State. He then spent time with the Detroit Lions and New York Jets, but was ultimately released by the Jets this preseason.
The 49ers have now brought in Martinez to fill their practice squad, providing them with additional quarterback depth behind starter Brock Purdy and new backup Mac Jones. Martinez will have the opportunity to develop and potentially earn a spot on the active roster in the future.
With this signing, the 49ers have addressed a need at the back of their quarterback depth chart, adding a young, talented player in Adrian Martinez to their roster.
