49ers Add Tom Savage Tuesday
6 years agoThe San Francisco 49ers signed free-agent quarterback Tom Savage on Tuesday, according to a league source. Savage will now serve as a backup to C.J. Beathard alongside Nick Mullens with Jimmy Garoppolo (knee) out for the season. Savage completed just 56.1 percent of his passes with six interceptions and five touchdowns while fumbling eight times in eight games for the Texans in 2017 while filling in for the injured Deshaun Watson. If Savage is forced into action with the Niners this year, they'll be in dire straights on offense.
