The San Francisco 49ers waive Shane Andrus

The 49ers have waived 30-year old kicker Shane Andrus.  The 30-year old Andrus played in 2 games for the 49ers this season and he made 2 of 4 field goals and all three of his extra points good for 9 points.  37-year old Joe Nedney is ready to return to action so the Niners had no need to keep Andrus around.  Nedney has played in 9 games so far this year for the 49ers and he has connected on 11 of 13 field goals (84.6%) and all 17 of his extra points good for 50 points.  The 49ers have to be happy to get Nedney back because they can’t afford to keep leaving points on the field.
