49ers sign Robert Beal Jr. to practice squad after Dolphins release

The San Francisco 49ers have added defensive end Robert Beal Jr. to their practice squad after he was waived by the Miami Dolphins. Beal, a fifth-round pick by the 49ers in 2023, previously played in 25 games for the team, recording 1 sack and 36 tackles. Signed by the Dolphins this offseason, he played in two games, registering one tackle. His return bolsters the 49ers' depth at defensive end alongside Viliami Fehoko Jr. and Ogbo Okoronkwo, as the team reaches the maximum of 17 players on their practice squad after also re-signing wide receiver KhaDarel Hodge.
