According to Mike Garafolo of NFL Network, the San Francisco 49ers are re-signing wide receiver Terique Owens, son of Hall of Fame receiver Terrell Owens, to their practice squad.

Owens spent the offseason with the 49ers but suffered a small hand fracture in August. He was waived, cleared waivers, and landed on the 49ers' injured reserve list, leading the team to reach an injury settlement with him on August 15.

Garafolo reports that Owens is now healthy and returning to the team. The 49ers originally signed him as an undrafted free agent out of Missouri State in April.


Owens will take the practice squad spot of defensive tackle Shakel Brown, who was reportedly released by the 49ers on Tuesday.


According to ESPN statistics, the 2023 collegiate season was Owens' most productive. He recorded 28 receptions for 528 yards (an average of 18.9 yards per catch) and four touchdowns with Missouri State. His receiving yards ranked second on the team, trailing only Raylen Sharpe, who finished with 991 yards.
