The 49ers on Saturday signed former New York Giants defensive lineman Jay Bromley and placed Kapron Lewis-Moore on injured reserve.
The club also signed former Houston Texans wide receiver Chris Thompson and waived wide receiver Max McCaffrey.
Bromley (6-foot-3, 314 pounds) entered the NFL as a third-round draft pick of the Giants in 2014. In four seasons with the Giants, he appeared in 55 games with four starts. He recorded 76 tackles and two sacks. He takes the roster spot vacated by Lewis-Moore, who sustained a severe groin injury in practice Thursday.
