In a minor roster move, the San Francisco 49ers released special teams player Bubba Ventrone on Tuesday and re-signed third-string quarterback Josh Johnson.
Ventrone was in on 23 special teams plays, 74 percent, in the 49ers’ 31-17 defeat of the St. Louis Rams on Monday Night Football.
Johnson has been released and re-signed by the 49ers twice since Sept. 20.
“He’s, like I said, he’s a 49ers quarterback,” coach Jim Harbaugh said last week after the team parted ways with him to make room for special teamer Kassim Osgood.
