The 49ers just announced they’ve placed second year defensive lineman, tight end and core special teams player Demarcus Dobbs on the injured reserve list.
Dobbs injured his right knee against the Miami Dolphins on Sunday. Dobbs played for every special teams unit, so whomever the 49ers sign will most likely be a versatile special teams player capable of stepping in and playing right away.

now they have 2 roster spots to fill. do you think they will fill one from within?
No, I don’t think they have any guys on the practice squad capable of filling in for Dobbs on special teams right now.
how about jacobs replacement
What about Cam Johnson?
It’s possible, good call.
Dobbs was not an OLB, but I was hoping he could be an emergency edge rusher (rather than Haggans) if Aldon Smith or Brooks needed resting.
The 49ers re-sign Eric Bakhtiari in 3..2…1…
Or Cartwright?
MS: Just to bug you, they are not going to add to the roster. they’re just going to have Alex play Special Teams and Running Back!!
I could see Alex on special teams. For the first time in 8 years he might be useful.
Msc….. After that hit he put on that Raider a couple of years ago. (Forgot who it was) that might not be a bad idea.lol
Eric Branch @Eric_Branch
