(Sports Network) - The San Francisco 49ers officially signed veteran offensive tackle Barry Sims on Thursday.

Terms were not disclosed but, according to the Santa Rosa Press-Democrat, Sims inked a two-year deal.

Sims, who was scheduled to earn $4.5 million in base salary this season with Oakland, was released by the Raiders at the start of free agency.

An undrafted free agent out of Utah in 1999, the 33-year-old Sims has spent his entire nine-year career with Oakland, starting all 16 games in four of the past five seasons and 119 out of 136 games overall.
