49ers Sign CB Leon Hall, DL Datone Jones

SANTA CLARA, Calif. (AP) - The San Francisco 49ers have signed cornerback Leon Hall and defensive lineman Datone Jones to one-year deals.

The 49ers waived defensive lineman Xavier Cooper and released tight end Logan Paulsen on Tuesday to make room on the roster.

Hall spent a little more than a week with the 49ers earlier this month before being released after not playing a game.

Jones was a first-round pick by Green Bay in 2013. He played 59 games over four seasons with the Packers with nine sacks, seven passes defensed and one fumble recovery. Jones spent time with Minnesota and Detroit this year but didn't appear in any games.
