Felony domestic violence charges against former San Francisco 49ers cornerback Tramaine Brock were dismissed on Wednesday.

The Santa Clara District Attorney's office declared that there was insufficient evidence to proceed with the case because the alleged victim declined to cooperate.

Brock, 28, was arrested on April 6 on suspicion of felony domestic violence and booked into Santa Clara County Jail. His bail was set at $50,000 and he was released from jail and by the 49ers the following day.

Santa Clara police found "visible injuries" on Brock's girlfriend after responding to a domestic violence call, according to the Sacramento Bee. Police described the woman's injuries as "minor" and she received no medical attention.

Brock can sign with any NFL team, although he could still face punishment under the league's policy on personal conduct.

The 5-foot-10, 197-pound Brock, who started all 31 games he played for the 49ers over the past two seasons, recorded 59 tackles, an interception and 14 passes defensed in 2016. He has played his entire seven-year NFL career in San Francisco after joining the team as an undrafted free agent in 2010.
