49ers released WR Jaron Brown.

Brown's 49ers "tenure" ended up lasting only eight days. Now on the wrong side of 30, Brown did not have a free agent market after the Seahawks elected not to re-sign him. He should be a fixture on the workout circuit, but 2020 contributions seem unlikely.

49ers signed WR Jaron Brown, formerly of the Seahawks.

Brown, 30, is the latest wideout to sign with the receiver-needy Niners, who lost Jalen Hurd for the season to an ACL tear and could be without Deebo Samuel to start the season. Brown's one nice season was in 2017 when he saw 69 targets while starting eight games for Seattle.

Brown isn't likely to re-sign with Seattle, Bob Condotta of The Seattle Times reports.

Brown signed a two-year, $5.5 million contract during the 2018 offseason and made it through both years of his deal. He started six of his 30 regular-season games and averaged just 24.2 offensive snaps per contest, catching 30 of 47 targets for 386 yards and seven touchdowns. Brown isn't likely to find a top-three WR role as a 30-year-old free agent, but his ability to contribute on special teams and in the red zone could lead to some interest for a depth job. Meanwhile, the Seahawks don't have a clear No. 3 behind Tyler Lockett and DK Metcalf, with options from the current roster including David Moore, Malik Turner, John Ursua and perhaps eventually Josh Gordon (suspension).

Brown, who wasn't targeted in the Sunday's 28-23 playoff loss to the Packers, finished with 16 catches for 220 yards and two touchdowns over 14 regular-season games.

Brown started the season as a starter but slowly saw his usage disintegrate as David Moore got healthy and Malik Turner took on additional duties. The 30-year-old Brown didn't play more than 11 offensive snaps in any of the last five regular-season contests, and he logged just nine in the only playoff game in which he played. He'll be an unrestricted free agent in March, and even if the team re-signs him, Brown won't be on fantasy radars in 2020.
