49ers offensive lineman Jordan Devey signed a one-year exclusive rights tender, the team announced on Monday afternoon.
Back in early March, the 49ers tendered Devey, giving him no outside negotiating power.
Last year, Devey started the first nine games for the 49ers at right guard before Andrew Tiller replaced him in the starting lineup. The 49ers acquired Devey on Aug. 18 from the New England Patriots in exchange for tight end Asante Cleveland.
