The San Francisco 49ers are looking for safety help this week, and rookie Shilo Sanders is a potential option before their Week 4 contest against the Jacksonville Jaguars.
Per Adam Schefter of ESPN, Sanders worked out for the 49ers on Tuesday.
The workout comes as safety Malik Mustapha is still out with a torn ACL in his right knee that he suffered in Week 18 of the 2024 season.
Sanders was initially signed by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers as an undrafted free agent this spring. The former Colorado Buffaloes standout had a chance to make the roster before the team's third preseason game, but Sanders was ejected from the contest after throwing a punch at Buffalo Bills tight end Zach Davidson.
