Former Bucs safety signs with 49ers

Safety Logan Ryan is the latest 2022 Bucs free agent to join a team far into the 2023 season.

One of Tampa Bay’s 2022 free agents has found a home late in the year.

The NFL’s Ian Rapoport reported on Tuesday that former Bucs safety Logan Ryan is signing with the San Francisco 49ers. The move comes with the 49ers searching for safety depth after injuries to their safety corps have began to pile up.

Ryan played for Tampa Bay in 2022. He had a limited impact during the season due to injuries, playing just nine games, where he netted 24 total tackles, one interception and one fumble recovery in Tampa Bay. Ryan is the latest among a number of Bucs free agents from 2022 that joined rosters later in the year — players like wideout Julio Jones, who joined the Eagles, and running back Leonard Fournette, who joined the Buffalo Bills.
