SANTA CLARA, Calif. (AP) - The San Francisco 49ers have acquired offensive lineman Shon Coleman from the Cleveland Browns for a 2019 seventh-round draft pick.
Coleman still must pass a physical for the deal made Friday to become official. The Niners were seeking more depth on the offensive line as they cut their roster to 53 players before Saturday’s deadline.
Coleman was originally a third-round pick by the Browns in 2016. He started 16 games at right tackle last season.
