This past season, Flannigan-Fowles played in 16 games, including one start in Week 15 against the Arizona Cardinals. While appearing on 16 percent of defensive snaps, he recorded 19 total tackles and four tackles for a loss.
Flannigan-Fowles will help the 49ers fill the void left by Dre Greenlaw, who is rehabbing following Achilles surgery.
