The San Francisco 49ers released quarterback Tom Savage.
Savage didn't make an appearance after being signed last month. The move indicates C.J. Beathard (wrist) will be active, as second-year undrafted free agent Nick Mullens is the only other quarterback currently on the roster, although it remains to be seen who will start. Savage is 28.
Savage is 181-of-315 (57.5 percent) for 2,000 yards (6.3 yards per attempt) with 5 touchdowns and 7 interceptions in 13 career appearances (nine starts).
