San Francisco dumps a depth DB in a cost-cutting move with minimal impact. No major media coverage suggests Canteen wasn't a notable roster piece or starter. Releasing a bench safety indicates the 49ers found cheaper alternatives or internal options. Fans barely noticed, confirming he was a fringe contributor rather than core defender. The 49ers will likely address DB depth through undrafted free agents or waiver claims.
