Tight end Logan Thomas is reportedly staying in the NFC.

ESPN's Nick Wagoner reported Monday that Thomas and the San Francisco 49ers agreed to a one-year deal. NFL Network's Mike Garafolo initially reported the two sides were "working to finalize a deal."

Thomas played the last four seasons on the Washington Commanders and has previous stops with the Arizona Cardinals, Buffalo Bills and Detroit Lions. He actually entered the league as a quarterback out of Virginia Tech.

Arizona selected him with a fourth-round pick in the 2014 draft, but he never established himself as a signal-caller at the sport's highest level. He eventually switched to tight end and made his first career catch in 2017 as a member of the Bills.

Thomas' best individual season came in 2020 with Washington when he posted 72 catches for 670 yards and six touchdowns. He was also solid last year with 55 catches for 496 yards and four touchdowns.

He is now joining a loaded 49ers roster and won't be one of the top options for quarterback Brock Purdy.

George Kittle will be the primary tight end, while Christian McCaffrey, Deebo Samuel, Brandon Aiyuk and Jauan Jennings will likely see more chances as well. However, that will also create opportunities for Thomas to exploit when he is on the field.

He will surely never be the focal point for opposing defenses and should have favorable matchups. He can use his height at 6'6" and athleticism to beat linebackers and safeties in single-coverage situations.

The end result could be a career-high in touchdowns even if he isn't a go-to option in the offense.
