The 49ers on Tuesday added some veteran depth to their young receiving corps. They’re due to sign former Chargers wide receiver Travis Benjamin to a one-year deal.
Benjamin, 30, was a fourth-round pick of the Browns in 2012 and was there in 2014 when Kyle Shanahan was the offensive coordinator.
He had moderate success his first three years but exploded in 2015 with 68 catches for 966 yards and five touchdowns.
In four seasons with Los Angeles, he posted 93 catches for 1,430 yards and nine touchdowns in 42 games.
His 2019 season was limited to just five games after a quad injury landed him on injured reserve
