Today the San Francisco 49ers heard some good news. According to Adam Schefter of ESPN, the 49ers could be getting back a former Pro Bowler in 2016.

Niners right tackle Anthony Davis, who has repeatedly said on social media he’ll return in 2016, will apply for reinstatement to play in the NFL this season, ESPN reported.

On Wednesday, general manager Trent Baalke said he’d spoken with Davis, but declined to discuss his situation until he applied for reinstatement.

Davis, 26, abruptly left the team in June, citing a need to let his “brain and body heal” after he was limited to seven games in an injured plagued 2014 season in which he sustained a concussion.
