"Veteran T.J. Houshmandzadeh is one of the players trying out today for the 49ers' vacancy at wide receiver, but longtime 49ers receiver Dominique Zeigler is not, according to multiple sources. The 49ers will consider a number of receivers, including veterans like Houshmandzadeh, who played 10 years in the league, as well as the team's practice-squad receivers, Joe Hastings and John Matthews.

"There will be somewhat of a tryout, a workout," coach Jim Harbaugh said on his weekly show on KNBR. "We'll bring some men in and compete for that spot, and most likely we will add another player to the 53-man roster. Whether that comes from our practice squad or outside the building, we'll determine that in the next 24 to 48 hours.""
