The Biggest News From 49ers Rookie Minicamp

If you blinked, you may have missed the biggest news of the San Francisco 49ers rookie minicamp. It’s hidden within the lines of a Matt Barrows article in the Athletic. Even if you read the piece, you may have missed its significance. More on that a little later.

But first, the 49ers held their rookie minicamp over the weekend, which included some rookie tryouts, as well. Before the minicamp began on Friday, the team announced they had signed all 21 of their rookies (nine draft picks, 12 undrafted free agents). It’s a great sign to have all the rookies signed this early. It’s much easier to do these days, but it’s still good to have them all signed at this point.
