Nobody could have predicted this political endorsement! Former President Donald J. Trump, a well-known sports fan, appeared on Bussin With The Boys with Taylor Lewan and Will Compton in a wide-ranging, silly, not-so-serious, puzzling, meandering, but entertaining interview.

He’s been flying heavily under the radar this season (probably due to the 49ers mediocre 2-2 record), and has taken plenty of criticisms, but numbers don’t lie, and it’s time to ask the question — is Brock Purdy low-key turning into a superstar this season? We all know the criticisms by now: Purdy is a system […]

While there is no doubt that the San Francisco 49ers have Super Bowl aspirations, it will be led by star quarterback Brock Purdy who looks to redeem himself after last season.
