Bears' Elijah Lee: Heads toward free agency
Lee didn't post a tackle in the Bears' 29-13 loss to the Vikings in Week 18 and ended the season with two tackles over two games played.
After playing seven defensive snaps in Week 1, Lee spent the rest of the season solely on special teams. He'll look to latch onto a team as a depth player as an unrestricted free agent.

Chiefs' Elijah Lee: Finds new home

Lee joins the team after spending the last two seasons with the Browns and Lions. The fifth-year journeyman appeared in 16 games for Cleveland in 2021, recording 15 tackles (11 solo). Lee will provide depth at linebacker and snaps on special teams, as he hasn't played a significant role on defense since 2018 with the 49ers.

The Browns placed Lee on the reserve/COVID-19 list Monday after he tested positive for the virus, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
Lee's mostly been a contributor on special teams while also providing depth at linebacker. Any potential absence moving forward shouldn't impact the Browns' defense. However, he'll try to clear protocols in time to suit up Week 17 in Pittsburgh.

Elijah Lee: Moving on from Detroit
Lee was waived by the Lions on Thursday.
The ex-49er was exclusively deployed on special teams during his time in Detroit, after starting on defense six times for San Francisco between 2018 and 2019. Lee's best season came two years ago when he racked up 65 tackles, one sack and a forced fumble, but his 2020 stint with the Lions was uneventful as he accumulated just two total tackles in limited work.

Lee and the Lions have come to terms on a one-year deal, Michael Rothstein of ESPN.com reports.

49ers' Elijah Lee: Does not receive tender
Lee was not given a tender by the 49ers, Matt Barrows of The Athletic reports.
After he played in all 16 games in 2018, starting the final four, Lee saw his role shrink last year. The 24-year-old spent the first half on the practice squad before recording only seven tackles (three solo) across eight contests, primarily on special teams.

49ers' Elijah Lee: Role reduced in 2019
Lee recorded seven tackles (three solo) over eight games during the 2019 regular season.
Lee racked up 65 total tackles in 2018 while starting just six games that season, but the linebacker still began 2019 on the practice squad after the team replenished its linebacker depth. The 24-year-old will be a restricted free agent this upcoming offseason, but the 49ers may let him walk with a healthy amount of linebackers under contract and not a lot of cap space to play with. Lee could surface as a deep IDP candidate based on his strong tackle totals in 2018 if he ends up in a scenario where he can see significant defensive snaps next year.

49ers' Elijah Lee: Joins active roster
Lee was promoted to the 49ers' active roster Tuesday.
