    Randy Moss Signs With The Niners For 1 Year

    Earlier today we told you about Randy Moss’ workout for the San Francisco 49ers. It was quite unique as head coach Jim Harbaugh would be the one throwing to the former Pro Bowl receiver.

    Apparently the 49ers liked what they saw as the team signed Moss to a one year contract today. There was some speculation that Moss would ultimately end up in New Orleans where he had a workout last week, but nothing ever came to fruition on that pairing. I guess now the question is can Randy Moss, Alex Smith, Vernon Davis, and Micahel Crabtree all co-exist in the same offense? We’ll see, but how ever it unfolds, it’ll be entertaining.

    ESPN’s Adam Schefter broke the news of Moss joining the Niners via Twitter:

    As to be expected the news of Moss donning the scarlet and gold had Twitterers tweeting a full capacity:

  • Jim Harbaugh Throwing To Randy Moss During 49ers Workout, Twitter Reacts

    Last week Randy Moss worked out for the New Orleans Saints where it was reported that he “looked like the old Randy“. On the heels of that report Moss is taking his talents to the Bay area where he’ll work out for the San Francisco 49ers today, but one interesting factoid is that he’ll be catching passes from his possible future coach — Jim Harbaugh.

    49ers CEO Jed York tweeted early this morning that Jim “Captain Comeback’ Harbaugh, would in fact be the one who will be throwing passess to Moss at the workout.

    It should be noted that Harbaugh was an NFL quarterback for 13 seasons, and Alex Smith cannot throw in a workout until the new league year starts, which is Tuesday at 4 PM E.T.

    News of this NFL workout oddity, which has the head coach throwing to a potential receiver, sparked the interest of numerous Twitterers:
