The San Francisco 49ers have signed former Cleveland Browns defensive back Derrick Kindred to a reserve/futures contract, according to Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports Bay Area.
The #49ers signed CB Derrick Kindred (TCU) to a future contract for the 2020 season. He was a fourth-round pick of the Browns in 2016. He played in 42 games (17 starts) in three seasons.
The Browns made Kindred a fourth-round selection out of TCU in 2016. He registered 45 combined tackles, a pass defensed, an interception, and a forced fumble through 16 games and two starts with the Browns in 2018. Kindred has recorded 148 combined tackles, 12 passes defensed, two interceptions, and a forced fumble during his three NFL seasons.
The Browns waived Kindred on April 1, 2019, and the defensive back spent the next four months with the Indianapolis Colts and a brief stint with the New York Jets before being waived on August 31, 2019.
