Harrell was waived by the 49ers on Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
Harrell spent his rookie season on the 49ers' practice squad. At Arkansas, he posted 37 receptions for 396 yards and six touchdowns over three seasons. The 6-foot-4 tight end will be a long shot to secure a roster spot in 2021.

With practice-squad member Shawn Poindexter landing on the injured list, a spot opened up for the 24-year-old Harrell.

Harrell was cut from San Francisco's practice squad Wednesday, Jennifer Lee Chan of NBC Sports San Francisco reports.
EDGE Analysis
San Francisco has three healthy tight ends on its roster and just designated starter George Kittle to return from IR, so the team no longer views Harrell as necessary emergency depth. Harrell will hope to latch on with another team's practice squad or roster.

Chase was removed from suspension Monday, per the NFL's official transaction log.
EDGE Analysis
The Arkansas product served a six-game suspension for violation of the NFL's policy on performance-enhancing drugs, but he is now able to return as a member of San Francisco's practice squad. Harrell has not yet seen the field in his rookie campaign, but with George Kittle (foot) having shifted to injured reserve Nov. 5, he may get an opportunity down the stretch should the 4-5 49ers fall out of contention completely.
