SANTA CLARA, Calif. (AP) -Kentwan Balmer missed his third consecutive day of practice with the San Francisco 49ers on Wednesday, and now it’s no longer OK with coach Mike Singletary and the team.
Singletary gave Balmer a pass Monday and Tuesday to deal with a “personal issue.” Wednesday’s absence was unexcused.
Balmer, San Francisco’s first-round draft pick in 2008, is entering the third year of the five-year, $8 million deal he signed as a rookie.
The defensive lineman from North Carolina has been a disappointment so far to the 49ers and was battling just to make the roster this summer. He has yet to start a game and recorded no sacks in his first two NFL seasons.
