The San Francisco 49ers announced they have signed the 113th pick of the 2025 NFL Draft, C.J. West, who was the first of the 49ers pair of fourth-round picks this past draft.
West practiced with the second-team defense during the 49ers’ offseason program, as was the case with every other rookie. West will compete with veteran Jordan Elliott and undrafted free agent Evan Anderson from the 2024 draft class for playing time.
West, like most of the 2024 49ers’ draft class, has plenty of collegiate experience. He started 48 games over five seasons at Kent State and Indiana. This past year, he started 13 games for the Hoosiers, where he registered 42 tackles, 7.5 tackles for loss, and a pair of sacks that earned him Honorable Mention All-Big Ten honors.
West’s deal is worth $5.21 million over four years during his rookie contract, including a signing bonus of $1.01 million. West’s cap hit is just over $1 million in 2025.
Now that West and Mykel Williams have signed, second-rounder Alfred Collins is the lone draft pick from the Niners 2025 draft class that remains unsigned.
