The San Francisco 49ers are signing former UFL edge rusher Jaylon Allen, NFL Network reported on Tuesday.

Allen, 25, originally joined the Denver Broncos as a 2024 undrafted free agent but was later waived with an injury settlement.

Allen worked out with the 49ers last weekend following a similar tryout with the Arizona Cardinals, per reports.

He tallied 23 tackles, 21 quarterback pressures and 1.5 sacks in 10 games for the Memphis Showboats in 2025.

The 6-foot-2, 245-pound defensive end played college football at Memphis from 2019-23, recording 13 sacks, three fumble recoveries and 150 tackles in 60 games.
