Cal Bears Free Agent Signings

It seems that the Cal Bears players who didn’t get a call about being drafted this weekend, have found a home—for now. Wide receiver Robert Jordan and Offensive Lineman Brian De La Puente have reportedly signed free agent deals with the San Francisco 49ers.

Like most free agent deals, both players will have to bust their tails off to fight to make it onto the active squad, let alone the practice team, but hey, at least they’re getting the opportunity.

As a 49ers fan, I’m pretty pumped on the news and hope to see one or both play on Sundays in the next few years. I think both have a lot to contribute and wish ‘em well.

On an interesting side note, Cameron Colvin, the WR from Oregon who had the critical fumble into the endzone for a touchback last year in the thrilling Cal/Oregon game, has also been signed as a free agent. I wonder how much Jordan or De La Puente will let him live that down.
