The 49ers waived Newsome on Tuesday, David Lombardi of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
The 24-year-old was let go in order to make room for fellow WR Anthony Miller on the 90-man roster. A 2021 sixth-round pick by the Bears, Newsome hasn't appeared in a regular-season game since his rookie year when he caught two passes for 23 yards. He made one catch for nine yards across 21 preseason snaps this summer.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Gets tryout with Cincinnati
Cincinnati worked out Newsome on Saturday, Field Yates of ESPN reports.
ANALYSIS
Newsome, along with Dede Westbrook, Victor Bolden and JaVonta Payton, worked out for the Bengals on Saturday. Cincinnati is expected to be without Ja'Marr Chase for an extended period, so it will likely continue bringing in free-agent wideouts to see if the team can find a suitable depth option. Newsome was drafted by the Bears in the sixth round of the 2021 NFL Draft and appeared in three games as a rookie, catching two of five passes for 23 yards, but he was waived by Chicago ahead of the 2022 regular season.
