The San Francisco 49ers announced they have signed wide receiver Robbie Chosen to a one-year deal. To make room on the roster, the team has waived/injured wide receiver Frank Darby, who suffered a hamstring injury in the preseason opener against the Tennessee Titans.

Matt Barrows of The Athletic first reported the signing of Chosen on August 8, following the player's workout with the 49ers.

"Blessed and thankful," Chosen said via a text message to NFL insider Josina Anderson regarding signing with the 49ers. "Dream come true; more to become. This is an opportunity to be apart of greatness and go win a Super Bowl. There's greatness all around me here, from what's been done, what exists and will be the future."
