Report: 49ers to sign former Panthers DE Yetur Gross-Matos to 2-year deal

The former second-round pick recorded 4.5 sacks last season with the Panthers.

After reportedly signing veteran edge rusher Leonard Floyd earlier on Monday, the San Francisco 49ers weren’t done adding to their defensive line.

According to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network, the 49ers are signing former Panthers defensive end Yetur Gross-Matos to a two-year contract worth $18 million.

Via @RapSheet on Twitter:

Gross-Matos spent his first four seasons with the Panthers after being drafted in the second round of the 2020 NFL draft out of Penn State. In four seasons, Gross-Matos has racked up 13 sacks and 19 tackles for loss.
