The San Francisco 49ers have announced the team has re-signed tight end
Ross Dwelley and safety Marcell Harris to one-year deals. Both were scheduled to become restricted free agents.
The 49ers have declined the 2021 option for linebacker Mark Nzeocha, who becomes a free agent. He was scheduled to have a base salary of $1.45 million and count $1.6 million against the salary cap this year.
San Francisco signed Dwelley as an undrafted free agent out of San Diego in 2018. He registered 19 receptions for 245 yards with a touchdown through 16 games with the 49ers in 2020. Dwelley, 26, has caught 36 passes for 350 yards with three touchdowns through his three NFL seasons.
The 49ers made Harris a sixth-round selection out of Florida in 2018. He registered 37 tackles, three passes defensed, and two forced fumbles through 16 games this past season. Harris, 26, has recorded 111 tackles, eight passes defensed, and five forced fumbles through his three NFL seasons.
San Francisco initially signed Nzeocha off of the Dallas Cowboys practice squad on September 25, 2017. He registered 19 tackles, two passes defensed, a sack, one interception, and one forced fumble through 47 games and three starts over the past four seasons. The linebacker also added 20 tackles on special teams.

NFL exec praises 49ers' Ricky Pearsall pick; Another believes Deebo Samuel is out next year
Mike Sando of The Athletic frequently taps into the insights of NFL executives across the league to gather intel and opinions on NFL developments, the latest being the 2024 NFL Draft. In his recent discussions with NFL executives about the San Francisco 49ers, the spotlight was on the wide receiver position.
One unnamed NFL executive praised the 49ers' choice of wide receiver Ricky Pearsall with the No. 31 overall pick.
"We loved that receiver," the executive told Sando. "The first round is probably a little high for him, but if they want the fifth-year option with him, fine."
That's an interesting perspective that has yet to receive much attention regarding Pearsall's selection. First-round picks come with a team option for a fifth year, which

Ian Rapoport sends clear message regarding 49ers' Brandon Aiyuk and Deebo Samuel
One thing is clear: Ian Rapoport expects Brandon Aiyuk and Deebo Samuel to be on the San Francisco 49ers roster when the team takes the field in Week 1 of the 2024 season. At this point, most probably feel that way. The fact that both stayed with the team throughout the draft clearly signals that general manager John Lynch and head coach Kyle Shanahan intend to retain their two talented receivers—at least for one more season.
"Week 1 of 2024, it looks like they both will be [on the roster]," Rapoport told guest host Tom Pelissero on "The Rich Eisen Show."
However, nothing in the NFL is ever certain.
"Now, look, crazy things can happen," Rapoport continued. "Someone loses a star receiver, they decide to give the 49ers something of value for this
