With Brandon Aiyuk and Ricky Pearsall set to begin training camp on the Active/PUP list, the 49ers worked out former Miami Dolphins WR Grant DuBose.
Mike Kaye of The Charlotte Observer reported that the San Francisco 49ers worked out former Miami Dolphins and Green Bay Packers wide receiver Grant DuBose, who spent his collegiate years playing for the Charlotte 49ers.
The 49ers will need practice bodies while Brandon Aiyuk and Ricky Pearsall begin training camp on the Active/PUP List. The active depth chart includes Jauan Jennings, Jacob Cowing, Demarcus Robinson, Jordan Watkins, and Junior Bergen.
DuBose was a seventh-round draft pick in the 2023 NFL Draft by the Green Bay Packers. He’s 6’2”, 201 pounds. DuBose ran a 4.57 40-yard dash coming out of college. During the 2023 preseason, DuBose played 56 total snaps, with 38 of those coming out wide at receiver compared to ten in the slot. DuBose caught three of his five receptions for 35 yards in the preseason, but did not take a single snap during the regular season with Green Bay.
DuBose saw his snap count double with Miami during the 2024 preseason. Out of 115 snaps, he played 61 snaps out wide and 35 in the slot. He appeared in three games last season with the Dolphins, where he caught two of his four targets for 11 yards.
We’ll see if this ends up being the only workout the 49ers had at wide receiver, and provide any updates if DuBose ends up signing with San Francisco.
