Professional career

Denver Broncos

The Broncos selected McBath in the second round (48th overall) of the 2009 NFL draft.[4] On July 26, 2009, McBath signed a four-year, $3.85 million contract with $2.01 million guaranteed and base salaries of $310,000 in 2009, $395,000 in 2010, $480,000 in 2011, and $565,000 in 2012.

McBath played in 13 games during his rookie year, accumulating 26 tackles (22 solo and 4 assisted).[5] In his second game, against the Cleveland Browns, McBath intercepted a pass by quarterback Brady Quinn for his first career interception. McBath's next interception was not until Week 14 against the Indianapolis Colts quarterback Peyton Manning. McBath suffered a broken forearm only a few plays later, and was placed on the injured reserve list for the rest of the season.[6] On September 4, 2011, McBath was waived by Denver.

Jacksonville Jaguars

McBath was signed by the Jacksonville Jaguars on December 12, 2011 and later released on April 23, 2012.[7]

San Francisco 49ers

McBath was signed by the San Francisco 49ers on July 23, 2012 to a one-year deal. Following the 2012 season, McBath and the 49ers appeared in Super Bowl XLVII. In the game, he recorded one tackle as the 49ers lost to the Baltimore Ravens, 34–31.[8]

McBath re-signed with the 49ers to another one-year contract in 2013.[9] On August 22, 2013, the 49ers placed McBath on injured reserve due to a foot injury he suffered in the second preseason game against the Kansas City Chiefs.[10]
