San Francisco cuts an undrafted prospect to make room for McLachlan at tight end. Headlines suggest Dinkins suffered an injury derailing his roster chances with the team. The injury designation signals the 49ers prioritized available healthy bodies over developing potential. Fans view this as standard roster management for an UDFA competing in camp. McLachlan replaces Dinkins, offering the 49ers a healthier depth option at the position.
