ANTA CLARA, Calif. -- Blake Costanzo had been keeping busy re-tiling his bathroom back home in New Jersey and doing regular yard work.
He remained optimistic he would land himself a job, even as free agency lingered into its fourth month.
The linebacker and special teams standout rejoined the San Francisco 49ers on Tuesday, signing 2 1/2 years after leaving the organization to play for the Chicago Bears. He signed a one-year contract for the veteran minimum of $855,000 for players with seven to nine years of experience.
"The biggest thing is this stadium right behind here," Costanzo said of what has changed, looking toward $1.2 billion Levi's Stadium. "There are a lot of new faces, but there are also a lot of guys I played with. It's a good opportunity to come out here and play some football again. I was doing too much yard work at home."
The 30-year-old Costanzo played 16 games for Chicago last season and finished with nine tackles and a forced fumble while also contributing on special teams.
