Summary
The San Francisco 49ers waived veteran offensive lineman Zachary Thomas, a March free agent signing, as he failed to make the final roster heading into training camp. With stops in Chicago, LA, New England, Houston, and Indianapolis, Thomas brought experience but didn’t fit the team’s evolving needs. His release opens a spot on the depth chart, where players like Trent Williams, Colton McKivitz, and others are competing for key roles. It’s a tough business — hard work doesn’t always guarantee a spot — and this move reflects the 49ers’ commitment to roster optimization before camp truly kicks into gear.
