The 49ers require assistance. And they got the best guy they could find. That’s how it usually goes when it comes to 49ers news. Almost any major player who hits the waiver wire will be linked to San Francisco, which has plenty of cap space and big ambitions this season. When the Chargers released Sebastian Joseph-Day last week, it was no surprise that the 49ers were interested, and on Tuesday, it was reported that he would be joining the team on a one-year deal.
“According to a team source, Sebastian Joseph-Day and the Niners agreed to terms on a one-year deal, with it expected to become official before San Francisco resumes practice Wednesday,” ESPN’s Nick Wagoner wrote. The Los Angeles Chargers released Joseph-Day on Friday, a surprising move given that he was a team captain who had started all 14 games for the team.”
It’s not surprising, either, that the sides are banding together, because defensive line is a position in desperate need. The 49ers have injury concerns on the defensive interior, most notably with Arik Armstead, who has a foot injury as well as a knee problem. This week’s game against the Ravens was missed by him. Javon Hargrave played on Monday, but his status was questionable due to a hamstring injury.
