San Francisco 49ers Sign Top CFL Receiver Eric Rogers

SANTA CLARA, Calif. (AP) - The San Francisco 49ers have signed former CFL wide receiver Eric Rogers to a two-year deal.

Rogers spent the past two seasons with Calgary Stampeders of the CFL before signing with the Niners on Thursday.

Rogers originally entered the NFL as an undrafted free agent with Dallas in 2013. He was cut by the Cowboys that summer and went to Canada the following year.
