Bajema caught the first two touchdown passes of his career last weekend. The Rams hopes the veteran tight end can keep it up.|||||||
Bajema, a seventh-round draft pick in 2005 by San Francisco, caught only seven passes in four years with the 49ers. He came to St. Louis as a free agent last season and had eight receptions. The 28-year-old Bajema has been more productive this year with 11 catches for a career-high 106 yard and those two touchdowns in Sunday's win at Denver. "It was fun getting into the end zone," he said.
Bajema is active for Sunday's game against San Diego.|||||||
Bajema should not be considered for fantasy purposes.
Bajema re-signed with the San Francisco 49ers on Friday, agreeing to a one-year deal.|||||||
Bajema, a restricted free agent, is entering his fourth NFL season. He has been a backup and a blocking specialist with the 49ers, catching just five passes - all during his rookie year in 2005.
According to the San Francisco Chronicle, Bajema was back at practice Thursday and should play Sunday.|||||||
Bajema is the team's backup tight end, but is valuable as an extra run-blocker and is a solid pass catcher.
