The San Francisco 49ers have signed free agent WR Chris Francies, the team announced Friday. To make room for Francies on their 80-man roster, the 49ers released DL Babatunde Oshinowo.

Francies (6-1, 203) was originally signed as an undrafted rookie free agent in 2006 by the Green Bay Packers out of Texas-El Paso. In 2006, Francies played in seven games for the Packers and posted two receptions for 16 yards. The following season, he spent time between Green Bay’s practice squad and active roster, appearing in one game. In 2008, Francies served on New Orleans practice squad for the final six weeks of the season.

Oshinowo is a former sixth-round pick of the Cleveland Browns out of the 2006 draft. He has also spent time with the Chicago Bears, Carolina Panthers, Washington Redskins, and Philadelphia Eagles.
