Barnes signed a contract with the 49ers on Wednesday.

EDGE Analysis

Barnes spent much of the offseason with the Niners but didn't survive final roster cuts ahead of Week 1. Now back in San Francisco, the Missouri product will provide depth along the interior of the offensive line.

Barnes signed a contract with the 49ers on Monday, Jim Thomas of The St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports.

EDGE Analysis

Barnes started all 32 regular season games for the Rams in 2015 and 2016 before his surprise release this offseason. Now with San Francisco, he'll have a chance to earn the starting role once again.

Barnes was released by the Rams on Thursday, Lindsey Thiry of the LA Times reports.

EDGE Analysis

Operating as the starting center, Barnes didn't miss a single game the past two seasons. His release comes as somewhat of a surprise as the Rams have little depth at the position. Meanwhile, the 28-year-old Missouri product shouldn't have a problem finding a new home this offseason.

Barnes (foot) is active for Sunday's game against the Patriots, Gary Klein of the Los Angeles Times reports.

EDGE Analysis

Barnes missed practice Wednesday and Thursday with the injury, but was able to log a limited session Friday, which was enough for the Rams to sign off on his availability. He'll start at center as he usually does.

Barnes (foot) will be active for Sunday's game against the Dolphins, Rams' insider Myles Simmons reports.

EDGE Analysis

Barnes was unable to practice throughout the week due to a foot issue, but it doesn't appear to be serious enough to keep him sidelined for the Rams' Week 11 tilt.

Rams re-signed exclusive rights free agents C Tim Barnes, WR Justin Veltung, and QB Austin Davis. Barnes started the final four games of the season after C Scott Wells suffered a fractured fibula. He was pushed around in the run game and is merely a backup. Davis served as Kellen Clemens' backup after Sam Bradford tore his ACL.

Rams re-signed exclusive rights free agents C Tim Barnes and TE Mike McNeill. Signed off the practice squad in Week 2, Barnes ended up appearing in 15 games, but played just one snap on offense. A special teamer and blocker, McNeill caught four passes across 14 games.

Rams promoted C Tim Barnes from their practice squad. 24-year-old Barnes is a former undrafted free agent out of Mizzou. He's an insurance policy with Scott Wells (fractured foot) out until at least midseason.

Rams signed C Tim Barnes to a reserve/future contract. An undrafted free agent out of Missouri in 2011, Barnes bounced around practice squads in his "rookie" year. He'll have an outside chance at a roster spot in 2012. The Rams are likely to overhaul their offensive line this offseason.
