Free agent running back Brian Westbrook has signed a one-year contract with the San Francisco 49ers, according to Matt Barrows.
Niners have struck a deal with Eagles running back Brian Westbrook, who passed a physical earlier today.
Even though the Redskins already had a very crowded backfield, they were considering adding Westbrook, if for no other reason than to make Donovan McNabb more comfortable. I guess they'll just have to rely on one of their four other running backs now.
