The San Francisco 49ers have signed a two-time college football national champion ahead of their upcoming game against the Las Vegas Raiders. The player's name and position were not disclosed in the initial announcement.
Separately, the 49ers recently took part in the NFL's first regular-season game in Australia, facing the Los Angeles Rams at the Melbourne Cricket Ground on September 11, 2026. Head coach Kyle Shanahan spoke to media at AAMI Park in Melbourne on September 9 ahead of that historic contest.
