Dieter Eiselen has quickly landed on his feet after being let go by the Denver Broncos.
Eiselen (6-4, 315 pounds) was cut from Denver’s practice squad on Saturday. Four days later, he has joined the San Francisco 49ers’ practice squad, according to a report from KUSA-TV’s Mike Klis.
The Broncos signed Eiselen on Oct. 8 after losing starting center Luke Wattenberg to an ankle injury. Before his brief stint in Denver, Eiselen spent three seasons with the Chicago Bears and one year with the Houston Texans. He’ll now get a fresh start with the Niners.
The Broncos, meanwhile, have just one true center —
Alex Forsyth — on the active roster. Superstar guard Quinn Meinerz is also capable of playing at center and Denver has Calvin Throckmorton and Nick Gargiulo available on the practice squad.
Elsewhere on the NFL’s transaction wire on Wednesday, ex-Broncos wide receiver Kaden Davis worked out for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, ex-Denver defensive back Lamar Jackson worked out for the Seattle Seahawks and ex-Broncos linebacker Justin Hollins worked out for the Pittsburgh Steelers.
