SMH if he hasn't confirmed his signing with the 49ers I'm more inclined to believe he's headed to Cincy.
Schefter is about as accurate as anybody in the business. What is also interesting however is Whitner tweeted "Who Dey" just before the signing was announced he was heading to Cincinnati.
Whitner text messaged media members that he was going to the Bengals, tweeted "Who Dey" on his twitter and the Bengals even posted the deal on their website. He changed his mind at the last minute.
He's coming to a better defense! Haha I liked him coming out of college. Fits the traditional box safety role the niners like.
