The San Francisco 49ers signed defensive lineman Damontre Moore to a one-year deal on Friday, three days after the Alliance of American Football folded.

Moore had seven sacks while starring for the AAF’s San Diego Fleet, and that has earned him a shot at reviving his NFL career.

Moore, 26, has 10 career sacks in 54 games over parts of six NFL seasons. He had a career-high 5.5 sacks in 2014 with the New York Giants.

Moore played college football at Texas A&M and was a third-round draft choice in 2013 by the Giants. He played 42 games for New York before being released late in the 2015 season.

The Miami Dolphins picked him up, and he played in three games. Moore played in four games for the Seattle Seahawks in 2016, three games for the Dallas Cowboys in 2017 and two games for the Oakland Raiders last season.

Moore has 83 tackles and two forced fumbles during his NFL career.
