NASHVILLE – The Titans have agreed to terms with former 49ers offensive lineman Daniel Brunskill.

The versatile Brunskill (6-5, 300) has played all over the offensive line in his career, mostly at guard.

He appeared in 14 regular-season contests for the 49ers in 2022 after starting every game for the 49ers in 2020 and 2021.

Titans general manager Ran Carthon knows Brunskill well – he worked in the personnel department in San Francisco and watched him work.

Brunskill will fill a need after former Titans guard Nate Davis reached a deal with the Bears earlier in free agency.

Brunskill, who played in college at San Diego State, originally entered the NFL as an undrafted free agent with the Atlanta Falcons in 2017. After signing with the 49ers in 2019, he began establishing himself in the team's physical offensive line.

Brunskill walked on at San Diego State as a tight end, but he made the switch back to his high school position on the offensive line prior to his senior season and started all 14 games at right tackle.
