Football Betting Lines

06/06/2009 - Santa Clara, CA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The San Francisco 49ers announced Saturday that they have signed long snapper Brian Jennings to a five-year contract extension through the 2014 season.

Per team policy, financial terms were not released.

"When you have a player that is one of the best in the league at his position, you are very lucky when you are able to lock him up for a long time like we have done with Brian," said general manager Scot McCloughan.

Jennings, a seventh-round pick by San Francisco in 2000 out of Arizona State, was named to the Pro Bowl in 2004. He has also recorded 53 career special teams tackles in 144 games, all with the 49ers.

"The biggest thing I feel right now is grateful," Jennings said to the media Saturday. "I'm grateful to the York family and the 49ers for originally drafting me and giving me a chance to play in the NFL."
