49ers rumors: San Francisco, Nnamdi Asomugha have mutual interest


There is mutual interest between the San Francisco 49ers and free agent cornerback Nnamdi Asomugha, according to Matt Maiocco of CSN Bay Area.

Asomugha was recently released by the Philadelphia Eagles following two disappointing seasons with the team. San Francisco expressed interest in the All-Pro cornerback before he left the Oakland Raiders to join Philadelphia.


During his time with the Eagles, Asomugha intercepted four passes and did not force or recover a fumble. He and the rest of Philadelphia’s secondary were torched on multiple occasions over the past two years.

The 49ers hope to add a big cornerback this offseason, according to Maiocco. Asomugha would fit the mold, as he stands at 6-foot-2, but his recent struggles and age (32) must have teams at least somewhat concerned.

Beyond the 49ers, the Houston Texans, Denver Broncos and Arizona Cardinals have also expressed interest in Asomugha.
