Brayden Willis: Staying with 49ers
The 49ers signed Willis to their practice squad Wednesday, Eric Branch of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.
Willis will stick around with the 49ers despite being waived Tuesday. The rookie undrafted free agent will look for an opportunity to be elevated for a regular season game at some point during the upcoming campaign.

Brayden Willis: Loses roster spot
Willis was waived by the 49ers on Tuesday, Matt Barrows of The Athletic reports.
Willis appeared in seven regular-season games for San Francisco last year after he was selected in the seventh round of the 2023 Draft out of Oklahoma. However, that experience wasn't enough to keep him with the 49ers for now. He'll likely be a candidate for the practice squad if he doesn't find an opportunity elsewhere.

49ers' Brayden Willis: Selected by Niners
The 49ers selected Willis in the seventh round of the 2023 NFL Draft, 247th overall.
Willis doesn't stand out as a receiver, but he served as a do-everything H-Back for Oklahoma. Given the way San Francisco has used Kyle Juszczyk, it's not particularly surprising to see them select Willis late in the draft. He isn't likely to make an immediate impact, but Willis could ultimately emerge as a useful piece in the 49ers offense.
