2012-GameRelease-Divisional

Demarcus Dobbs signed with the 49ers as an undrafted free
agent out of the University of Georgia on July 27, 2011. A tough,
hard-nosed defender, Dobbs took advantage of every opportunity
presented to him throughout training camp to earn a spot on the
49ers 53-man roster, and later saw action on defense and special
teams in 2011. With Dobbs, QB Scott Tolzien and NT Ian Williams making
the 2011 opening day roster, it marked the first time since 2001
that the 49ers had at least three undrafted free agents make the
team (4 in 2001 - DT John Schlect, LB Quincy Stewart, LB Shane Elam
and P Jason Baker).

• Played on Injured Reserve List on 12/11.

• After growing up in foster care and overcoming a multitude of obstacles
that would discourage almost anyone, Dobbs poured himself
into his schoolwork and vowed to graduate high school – something
no one in his family had yet accomplished. While working diligently
in school, he managed to shine on the football field as well, earning
a football scholarship to the University of Georgia. Dobbs excelled
academically at Georgia, just as he had done his whole life. He majored
in consumer economics and earned his degree a year early so
that he would be able to have internships and job experience during
his final year of football eligibility. After graduation, Dobbs was
hopeful – but always realistic – about his chances of playing in the
NFL. Many speculated he would be drafted, but when he did not receive
a phone call from a team on draft night, Dobbs did not give up.

DOBBS’ CAREER STATISTICS
DOBBS’ CAREER HIGHS
He and his agent looked over NFL rosters and decided that he would
fit best in San Francisco. They could not have been more accurate.
Dobbs worked tirelessly during 49ers training camp and preseason.
He impressed players, coaches and staff with his determination and
athletic ability. “I’ve always been a guy to work hard,” Dobbs said. “I
was voted the Defensive Leadership Award by the coaches at Georgia.
I’ve always been a guy that gave great effort on the field. When
I got here, I knew each day I was going to push hard and whatever
happens, happens. As long as I can say that I gave my all and I did all
I could do.”
