O'Sullivan to Niners

ESPN is reporting that UC Davis legend J.T. O'Sullivan has been signed by the 49ers.

This report has been picked up by the San Francisco Chronicle and, in one of those strange twists of modern media, a blog on the 49ers website. Both cite the ESPN report. The 49ers have said nothing official. But the report sounds right. From everything we heard, the relationship between Mike Martz and O'Sullivan was pretty much love at first sight when the two were in Detroit together last season. I have no clue if this is a good fit for O'Sullivan or not, but one imagines he'll have a chance to compete with Shaun Hill for the back-up job.

CORRECTION (4 p.m. Saturday): Shaun Hill, not Shaun King.
