Jerod-Eddie was brought in as an undrafted free agent by the 49ers in 2012. He has had 49 tackles and an interception (off of Matt Schaub) over his career.
Other defensive lineman include Arik Armstead, Glenn Dorsey, Tank Carradine, Quinton Dial, Kaleb Ramsey, Mike Purcell, Garrison Smith, and Ian Williams.
Williams was originally scheduled to become a free agent in March until the 49ers re-signed him to a five-year deal. That contract was later reduced to a one-year deal when it was revealed during a physical that he was likely to miss the start of the season.
