A former Arizona Cardinals first-round pick is signing with a division rival. Tackle D.J. Humphries, drafted in the first round by the Cardinals in 2015, agreed to a one-year deal to join the San Francisco 49ers.
Humphries might end up being a starter for the Niners. They have questions at right tackle.

Humphries played nine seasons for the Cardinals before tearing his ACL in December 2023. He was released in the offseason and signed late in the season with the AFC champion Kansas City Chiefs. He played in two games for the Chiefs.
Now 31 years old, he offers the 49ers tackle depth. As he joins a fellow NFC West team, he face the Cardinals twice in the 2025 season, including a homecoming trip to State Farm Stadium
