Tries out with Niners
San Francisco worked out Darby (undisclosed) on Tuesday, Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
ANALYSIS
The 49ers waived Darby with an injury settlement prior to the start of the 2024 season nearly a year ago, but they're now giving him another look as the 2025 campaign approaches. San Francisco is dealing with more than a few injuries in its wide receiver room currently, so it would make some sense to try to add depth at that position.

Perhaps in recognition of Julio Jones' durability concerns and advancing age, the Falcons nabbed Darby with a sixth-round pick in the 2021 Draft to fortify their wide receiver room. While he lacked standout production in four years at Arizona State and didn't test well during the pre-draft process, Darby drew high marks as a deep-ball route runner. Darby likely will need to prove his worth on special teams to make the roster, and the fact he's buried on the depth chart may mean he's a regular healthy scratch in that scenario.
