49ers Add Another Buckeye, Linebacker Thaddeus Gibson

While the San Francisco 49ers players were making thier way back from London, the front office was busy on waiver claim Monday.  Today, they picked up linebacker Thaddeus Gibson off of waivers from the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Gibson, who was drafted by the Steelers in the fourth-round out of Ohio State.  He had never made it on the active roster all season. 

Gibson played defensive-end in college and translates to outside linebacker in the 3-4, a position that the 49ers are already stacked at.

With the addition of Gibson, the 49ers now have five former Buckeye's on the roster.  The other four are Nate Clements, Troy Smith, Ted Ginn, and Alex Boone.
