Terique Owens: Everything you need to know

The 49ers waived Owens on Tuesday, Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports Bay Area reports. Owens spent most of last season on the Niners' practice squad. On 33 offensive snaps this preseason, Owens produced a 2-39-1 receiving line. He's a candidate to rejoin the team on the practice squad if he clears waivers.

San Francisco signed Owens to a reserve/future contract Monday. Owens signed with the 49ers as an undrafted free agent in May. He hurt his hand early in training camp and ultimately reverted to IR before being waived with an injury settlement. However, the Missouri State product then rejoined San Francisco as a member of the practice squad in early October and remained there throughout the rest of the campaign. Owens will stick around in the organization during the offseason and will have a chance to compete for a roster spot during training camp next summer.
