49ers Sign WR Kevin Jurovich
By admin
With one spot open on their 80-man roster, the San Francisco 49ers announced the signing of rookie free agent wide receiver Kevin Jurovich.
After playing safety his first two years at San Jose State, Jurovich (5-11, 182) converted to wide receiver before the 2007 season. Jurovich caught a school-record 85 passes in '07 for 1,183 yards and 9 touchdowns, earning second-team All-WAC honors. A medical issue limited Jurovich to two games in 2008, and he came back as a red-shirt in 2009 to catch a team-high 60 passes for 777 yards and a touchdown.
Signed by the Philadelphia Eagles after not being picked in the 2010 NFL Draft, the Eagles waived Jurovich with an injury settlement on July 29.
