49ers sign veteran CB Bly

Football Betting Lines

05/21/2009 - Santa Clara, CA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The San Francisco 49ers signed cornerback Dr Bly to a one-year contract on Thursday.

"We lost a Pro Bowl caliber player in Walt Harris this week, and we were able to fill that void today with another Pro Bowler in Dr Bly," 49ers general manager Scot McCloughan said. "We added a player with a passion for the game, tremendous productivity and proven durability who knows what it takes to compete at a high level in the NFL. It was important to get Dr in here quickly so that he can get acquainted with our system, our coaches and his new teammates."

Harris suffered an ACL injury in practice on Tuesday and will undergo surgery within the next few weeks. It's been reported he will miss the entire 2009 season after tearing a ligament in his right knee.

Bly, a two-time Pro Bowl selection, spent the past two seasons in Denver before being released in February as the Broncos purged a bevy of players in salary-cap moves.

A veteran of 10 NFL seasons, Bly led Denver each of the past two seasons in interceptions with two in 2008 and five in 2007. He also recorded 62 tackles and eight passes defensed last season, starting all 16 games.

The 31-year-old has 40 career interceptions, 159 passes defensed, 538 tackles, 18 forced fumbles and four sacks over 151 games (111 starts) for Denver, Detroit and St. Louis.
