49ers vet who's made $12.1m wakes up unemployed just weeks after Super Bowl loss
THE San Francisco 49ers have released cornerback Isaiah Oliver.
The Arizona native joined the 49ers before the 2023 NFL season, signing a two-year deal.

Oliver, 27, made Super Bowl LVIII with San Francisco.
But his 49ers fell 25-22 to the Kansas City Chiefs in the championship game, taking place in Las Vegas, Nevada, on February 11.
Less than two weeks later, the cornerback found himself out of the team.
The 49ers announced that they had released Oliver on Friday.
The move saved them about $2 million in salary cap space.
The ex-Colorado standout made 17 appearances for San Francisco during the regular season, starting in six games.
But his role severely diminished in the second part of the campaign.
All in all, he registered 58 tackles, two passes defensed, one interception, and one fumble recovery.

Oliver then appeared in all three postseason games, although saw action mostly with the special teams.
The corner started his NFL career when the Atlanta Falcons selected him in the second round of the 2017 draft.
He spent five seasons with the Falcons before leaving in free agency last year.
Oliver has made $12.1 million in career earnings.
His exit comes after the 49ers parted ways with defensive coordinator Steve Wilks.
Wilks was fired just one year after replacing DeMeco Ryans – who became the head coach of the Houston Texans – in the role.
