The New York Giants selected Gallman in the
fourth round of the 2017 draft, and the back played there for
four years before leaving the team in free agency. Used
primarily as a change-of-pace back during his time in New York,
he ended up starting 10 games in 2020 following an early season
injury to Saquon Barkley.
Gallman, 26, led the team in rushing attempts (147), rushing
yards (682) and rushing touchdowns (six) -- all single-season
career highs.
With the Giants, Gallman rushed for 1,444 yards on 338 attempts
and scored 11 touchdowns -- nine rushing and two receiving. He
joins a running back room in San Francisco led by Jeff Wilson
and Raheem Mostert.
Terms of Gallman's deal were not disclosed.
Key, who turns 24 next month, was waived last week by the Las
Vegas Raiders after three seasons with the team. The 2018
third-round pick from LSU has managed just three sacks in his
career, including zero over 14 games in 2020.
He has 49 career tackles (eight for loss) and 26 quarterback
hits. He played 40 percent of the team's defensive snap counts
last season.
