WR Torrey Smith reportedly signs five-year deal with 49ers

Published Mar. 10, 2015 5:13 p.m. ET

Amid a host of offseason departures, the 49ers are bringing in wide receiver Torrey Smith to try to stem the tide.

San Francisco signed Smith to a five-year deal, according to multiple reports. The signing reunites Smith with former Ravens teammate Anquan Boldin and pairs a duo that helped beat the 49ers in Super Bowl XLVII.

Smith, arguably the best deep threat on the free-agent market, might replace free agent Michael Crabtree and recently released Stevie Johnson.

The 49ers, who have a new head coach and a mostly new coaching staff, have already lost running back Frank Gore and offensive lineman Mike Iupati to new teams and linebacker Patrick Willis to retirement.
