Charlie Woerner Makes 53-Man Roster with San Francisco 49ers

Roster cuts have been made all across the NFL, and though it was a rough day for several undrafted former Georgia Bulldogs, all of the drafted players have made their final rosters. Including Charlie Woerner with the San Francisco 49ers.

Woerner has impressed throughout camp with his blocking abilities, something that is no surprise to the Georgia faithful that watched him block with incredible effort during his tenure with the Bulldogs.

Woerner fits the zone scheme in San Francisco perfectly with his ability to block on the edge and his comfort with his hand in the dirt.
