The San Francisco 49ers hired Kyle Shanahan as the franchise’s head coach in 2017, but the Niners nearly added a pair of Shanahans in 2015.

The time has come for Trey Lance. After so much anticipation, it seems clear that the San Francisco 49ers are finally prepared to hand over the reins to their highly-touted young quarterback.

San Francisco 49ers star tight end George Kittle is enjoying no longer having to go against the team’s star edge rusher, Nick Bosa.  Currently, the 49ers are facing off against the Minnesota Vikings in joint practices. This has allowed George Kittle to line up against opposing defenders who aren’t named Nick Bosa. Recently George Kittle […]

The San Francisco 49ers’ first preseason game was largely successful. After beating the Green Bay Packers, 28-21, they also avoided serious injuries. In addition, there weren’t many below-par performances. Still, there were a few 49ers players who noticeably struggled. This is quite important since these guys are still in the mix of the roster spot […]

Jimmy Garoppolo has recently been linked to the Cleveland Browns. He’s been mentioned in trade rumors all offseason long but nothing has come to fruition. However, many felt as if Cleveland would be interested in the San Francisco 49ers’ QB because of Deshaun Watson. Watson was originally handed a 6-game suspension, but the NFL is […]

The San Francisco 49ers have been bitten by the injury bug early and often throughout training camp and preseason play. That has made head coach Kyle Shanahan’s job harder, as he has to evaluate his roster knowing some players aren’t able to practice or are playing at less than 100 percent. Kyle Shanahan dealt another […]

Jimmy Garoppolo has faced trade rumors all offseason long. But due to an injury, the veteran QB remains a member of the San Francisco 49ers.

San Francisco 49ers QB Trey Lance made headlines on Friday with his epic performance in their preseason game against the Green Bay Packers. He also had unarguably one of the best touchdowns of the day with his early TD pass to rookie Danny Gray that went viral. Perhaps that 76-yard bomb to Gray set the […]

Trey Lance is ready to take over for the San Francisco 49ers. If there were any doubts about that, the young QB erased all of them on Friday against the Green Bay Packers. During the first quarter of the preseason contest, Lance didn’t waste any time showing everyone that he is up to the challenge […]

The San Francisco 49ers will be without their first-string running back in preseason action as Elijah Mitchell has suffered a hamstring injury. But, fans don’t need to worry quite yet. Per Adam Schefter, he’s expected to be ready for Week 1 against the Chicago Bears on September 11th. 49ers’ RB Elijah Mitchell is nursing a […]

Kyle Shanahan has had his fair share of disputes in the NFL since he came onto the scene. This time around, however, the San Francisco 49ers head coach has taken a shot at the league for what some might see as a very trivial matter. Well, this isn’t the case for the 42-year-old shot-caller. Hats. […]

Jimmy Garoppolo is many things to his San Francisco 49ers teammates. He’s a hard worker, a leader and, apparently, “the worst texter of all time.” That doesn’t just pertain to his teammates. The handsome yet slightly erratic signal-caller tends to disappear in the offseason to a point where teammates and friends like George Kittle can’t […]

A rematch of the NFC Divisional Round is set to take place as the Green Bay Packers meet up with the San Francisco 49ers where the stakes will be a whole let less when the pair last met. With that being said, it is about that time to take a sneak peek into our NFL […]

The Cleveland Browns are bracing themselves for the NFL’s final decision regarding the suspension to star quarterback Deshaun Watson.

Robinson. If […]

This weekend sees the official start of the NFL preseason, which includes a Friday night clash between two NFC contenders in the San Francisco 49ers and Green Bay Packers.

Football season is here, and the Green Bay Packers will open up their preseason against the San Francisco 49ers on Friday. The Packers have been a contender in the NFL over the past few seasons but have come up short of reaching a Super Bowl. Green Bay had an eventful offseason but will be a […]

Maybe the rest of Big 12 football should not be sleeping on Texas Longhorns true freshman wide receiver Savion Red, especially when he’s already getting compared to San Francisco 49ers weapon Deebo Samuel this early in his college football career. Red’s teammate and Longhorns junior wideout Jordan Whittington recently said that Red reminds him of […]

Deebo Samuel recently made headlines after finally sealing the deal on a massive $73.5 million extension with the San Francisco 49ers. This time around, the star wide receiver has seen his name dragged into controversy after supposedly being accused by Jake Paul of sliding into his girlfriend Julia Rose’s DMs. A video clip of Paul asking […]

Brandon Aiyuk is undoubtedly a major playmaker for a San Francisco 49ers offense that consistently finds ways to move the ball and score lots of points. In theory, this makes him a desirable candidate for any fantasy manager. Is he, however, a guy that fantasy managers need to roster following a bumpy season in 2021? […]

Ex-NFL star Frank Gore was charged with simple assault stemming from a domestic violence incident that occurred in late July. Now, some graphic details have emerged from the incident. According to TMZ, new court documents revealed that Gore grabbed a naked woman by her hair and dragged her across a hotel room hallway on July […]

The San Francisco 49ers have handed the keys to the offense to Trey Lance, paving the way for Jimmy Garoppolo to be traded. It was only two weeks ago the team made it clear Garoppolo will not be on the roster for much longer, but it appears there hasn’t been a lot of interest in […]

Since Trey Lance entered the NFL last year, a lot of people could not help but compare him to Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen. Both players are big, athletic, mobile QB’s who struggled with accuracy in college. Both of whom also have very big arms. But on its face, it sounds a little ridiculous considering […]

The San Francisco 49ers have given quarterback Trey Lance the keys to the castle. Now as he enters his second season, all eyes will be on Lance. Throughout training camp, head coach Kyle Shanahan and the entire 49ers have committed to Trey Lance. The North Dakota State product will now have all eyes on him. […]

San Francisco 49ers tight end George Kittle thinks Jimmie Ward is one of the most underrated players in the NFL today, and he has a legitimate reason for saying it. Speaking on the Papa & Lund show (via 49ers Webzone), Kittle highlighted how good Ward is despite his skills and abilities being largely overlooked. The […]

The San Francisco 49ers had a special guest in attendance during practice on Tuesday. Famous video game streamer Dr. Disrespect was at the team’s facilities on Tuesday and was even seen taking the field after practice, suited up in Niners gear.

The San Francisco 49ers are entering a new era. Despite Jimmy Garoppolo not yet being traded, the Niners are preparing to move on with Trey Lance as their quarterback.

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Deebo Samuel knows exactly what they need to do to win the Super Bowl, but as usual, it won’t be easy. The 49ers got close to winning it all in two of the past three seasons. They reached the Super Bowl in the 2019 season, only to lose to the […]

In the 2021 NFL Draft, the San Francisco 49ers picked Trey Lance third overall. Some have compared him to Lamar Jackson, but Lance lacks his top-end speed and arm power. With Lance’s tendency to break the pocket, play with his eyes up, and explode up the field on a run, perhaps Deshaun Watson might actually […]

The San Francisco 49ers made some moves to try and get over the hump in a division that featured the defending Super Bowl champion Los Angeles Rams. It’s time to pay attention to FanDuel’s 2022 over-under win totals, including the 49ers’ over/under win total. The 49ers are coming off a 10-7 season with plenty of […]

After all these months, Jimmy Garoppolo is still part of the San Francisco 49ers.

While Jimmy G has been excellent for them, it seemed like the team was ready to move into the […]

The San Francisco 49ers have handed the keys of the franchise to sophomore quarterback Trey Lance. The North Dakota State product has a ton of potential but isn’t exactly lighting things up right now. The 49ers held practice on Sunday, described as the worst practice Lance has had thus far. 49ers reporter Rob Lowder noted […]

Brandon Aiyuk did not exactly have a groundbreaking campaign for the San Francisco 49ers last season. There were a lot of highs, but it would probably be presumptive to say that he’s already proven that he’s going to be the Niners’ superstar wide receiver of the future. There’s going to be a lot of pressure […]
