Report: 49ers re-signing Gipson to 1-year deal

The San Francisco 49ers are re-signing veteran safety Tashaun Gipson to a one-year deal, reports Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports.

The contract is worth $2.9 million, according to Mike Garafolo of NFL Network.

Gipson started every game in his first season with the 49ers last year, leading the team in snaps played and helping it build the NFL's No. 1 defense.

The 32-year-old racked up 61 tackles, eight pass breakups, and a team-high five interceptions, forming one of the top safety duos in the league alongside Talanoa Hufanga.

Gipson also played for the Cleveland Browns (2012-15), Jacksonville Jaguars (2016-18), Houston Texans (2019), and Chicago Bears (2020-21) after going undrafted in 2012.
