49ers sign 2 former Packers OL

San Francisco, CA – May 9, 2025 — The San Francisco 49ers added depth to their offensive line on Friday, signing veteran tackles Andre Dillard and Nicholas Petit-Frere following rookie minicamp evaluations.

Dillard, a former first-round pick of the Philadelphia Eagles, spent the 2024 season as a reserve lineman with the Green Bay Packers, playing just 13 offensive snaps all year. Despite being a recurring name in trade rumors, no deal materialized. His addition gives San Francisco an experienced, if underutilized, option on the bench.

As for Petit-Frere, fans may recall his rough outing last season with the Tennessee Titans, particularly in a lopsided matchup against the Packers where the Titans allowed eight sacks — a stark contrast to the Packers' average of just 2.3 sacks per game across their other 16 contests. Statistically, Petit-Frere was among the league’s lowest-rated pass blockers in 2024.

Whether these signings significantly elevate the 49ers’ protection unit remains to be seen. However, they add much-needed competition and insurance behind Colton McKivitz (2-year, $4.6M deal) and D.J. Humphries (1-year, $2M), who are expected to compete for the starting right tackle role.

The 49ers’ offensive line depth took hits in free agency with the departures of Aaron Banks (Packers), Jaylon Moore (Chiefs), and Charlie Heck (Buccaneers) — all of whom started games last season. San Francisco didn’t address the offensive line until Day 3 of the 2025 NFL Draft, making these post-draft additions even more critical.

Dillard’s signing also marks a footnote for Green Bay: he was one of just two remaining unrestricted free agents from their 2024 squad. With his departure, only tight end Tyler Davis, currently battling injury concerns, remains unsigned — though cornerback Robert Rochell has since returned to the market after being released by the Kansas City Chiefs.
