<b>Update on Brandon Whiting</b>
Brandon Whiting will remain with the 49ers…for now.
The defensive end will have shoulder surgery performed by 49ers medical personnel and the team will have until September 1 to clear him for a physical. That date was reached in an agreement with Philadelphia.
If, at that time, Whiting does not pass the physical, he will be returned to the Eagles and the 49ers will gain Philadelphia’s 3rd-round selection in the 2005 draft.
49ers.Com will bring you more on the situation as it develops, including the schedule for his surgery.
Personally I thought the 49ers got stiffed with Whiting. Owens and his agent crapped on the floor, and the 49ers had to clean it up. I know that September 1st is a long ways off, but if this guy can't pass a physical by then I'm almost positive the Eagles will go cry to the players union.
