SF releases Nate Davis

padre31 · Sep 6, 2010

Michael Lombardi of NFL.com reports the San Francisco 49ers will release quarterback Nate Davis tonight.

Davis was a fifth-round pick (171st overall) out of Ball State in 2009 who spent his rookie season as the team's third quarterback. Davis struggled this pre-season (52.3% completion percentage, 2 interceptions, 62.8 passer rating) and was on the roster bubble, but survived the 49ers' cutdown to 53 players on Saturday.

The 49ers signed rookie quarterback Jarrett Brown to their practice squad on Sunday.

Brown (6-3, 219) did not appear in a pre-season game, but reportedly has a strong training camp and was pushing Davis for a roster spot behind starter Alex Smith and top back-up David Carr. The impending release of Davis does not necessarily mean an elevation to the active for Brown.

Imho there were personality differences between Davis and Singletary.
