Helm was signed to the Raiders' roster Monday, NFL reporter Aaron Wilson reports.

EDGE Analysis

Helm was waived by the 49ers on Tuesday, Matt Barrows of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

The 26-year-old re-signed with San Francisco in mid-March but won't remain with the team through the offseason. Helm made his NFL debut in 2020 and wasn't targeted in five games.

Helm signed with the 49ers on Wednesday, Chris Biderman of The Sacramento Bee reports.

EDGE Analysis

Helm suited up in five games -- his first NFL appearances -- for the 49ers in 2020, logging just 28 offensive snaps. The 25-year-old didn't provide much offensive upside at Duke. He'll need to battle for a roster spot during training camp.

EDGE Analysis

Helm collected seven of his 11 total snaps on offense during Saturday's 20-12 win over Arizona, but he remains without a reception over five appearances this season. George Kittle's Week 16 activation from a foot injury does nothing to improve Helm's potential involvement in the passing game moving forward.
