Daunte Culpepper is about to land on his fifth NFL squad.
A source told Matt Maiocco of CSNBayArea.com that “all indications” point to the 49ers signing Culpepper to a one-year contract.
The veteran quarterback worked out for the Niners on Monday morning and is expected to be on the practice field if the deal is consummated. San Fran has a three-hour team practice beginning at 2:30 p.m. PST.
Maiocco warns, however, that Culpepper wouldn’t be brought aboard to start for the 49ers. He wouldn’t unseat the incumbent Alex Smith or rookie Colin Kaepernick atop the depth chart.
The team instead envisions the 34-year-old as a No. 3 quarterback with experience that could enter a game if called upon.
