Thompson (undisclosed) cleared waivers Sunday and reverted to the 49ers' injured reserve, Albert Breer of TheMMQB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Unless Thompson reaches an injury settlement with the 49ers, he won't play in the 2020 campaign. It's still unclear what kind of injury the 26-year-old wideout is battling, but if it's not severe, he could have another chance at an NFL roster this season.

The 49ers waived/injured Thompson (undisclosed) on Saturday, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
If Thompson clears waivers, he'll revert to the 49ers' injured reserve and await a potential injury settlement. The 26-year-old wideout hasn't played an NFL game since the 2017 season, so even if he reaches a settlement, he's a long shot to make an NFL roster.

Thompson was waived by the 49ers on Saturday, Matt Barrows of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
The additions of Tavon Austin and J.J. Nelson created a suddenly deep 49ers wide receiving corps, with Thompson on the outside looking in. Thompson hasn't played in a regular-season game since 2017.

Thompson signed a reserve/future contract with the 49ers on Tuesday, Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
EDGE Analysis
Thompson spent parts of training camp with the 49ers and eventually signed to the practice squad in December, and he's now set to remain with the team for the offseason program. The 25-year-old hasn't seen NFL action since appearing in 13 games as a rookie with the Texans in 2017.

The 49ers signed Thompson to the practice squad Tuesday, Eric Branch of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.
EDGE Analysis
Thompson spent much of the offseason in San Francisco, and he now rejoins the team as a member of the practice squad. The third-year pro could be a candidate to bump to the active roster later in the season if he shows well on special teams.

Thompson signed a contract with the 49ers on Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
Thompson was waived by the 49ers earlier in training camp, and now rejoins the team in a depth capacity. The third-year wideout faces long odds to make the 53-man roster, but it's somewhat encouraging that San Francisco was interested enough to give him a second chance.

Thompson was waived by the 49ers on Thursday.
EDGE Analysis
Thompson spent less than a week in San Francisco after being cut by the Texans. The second-year wideout will now search for a depth role elsewhere in the league.

Thompson signed a contract with the 49ers on Saturday, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Thompson will take the roster spot of Max McCaffrey, who was released Saturday. The second-year receiver played a handful of snaps for the Texans last season, recording a team-high 54 receiving yards in Week 17 with much of the team's receiving corps out due to a litany of injuries. He'll fill a depth role for the 49ers with a number of players ahead of him on the depth chart.

Thompson was released by the Texans on Tuesday, Aaron Wilson of the Houston Chronicle reports.
EDGE Analysis
Thompson had been absent for over a week with a concussion, but he was able to return to practice recently. However, it looks like Thompson was not in the Texans' future plans and he'll now look to latch onto another team with just a couple weeks to go before the start of the season.
