Patrick Willis welcomes David Carr to San Francisco

A few days after 49ers linebacker expressed his displeasure about David Carr possibly arriving in San Francisco, the team’s defensive captain struck a different tone on Twitter.

“I heard that Carr signed,” Willis wrote. “He is my teammate now. Which means I’m all in for the guy. Its all about the team. Congrats and welcome aboard.”

Willis wrote on Saturday that the team already has three quarterbacks better than Carr. The 49ers disagreed, agreeing to terms with Carr Sunday. He will be the team’s backup ahead of Shaun Hill.

It’s worth noting Willis has never faced Carr in a regular season game, but his words indicate the lack of respect Carr gets around the league. There’s only one way for Carr to change that.
