Caden Sterns has a pair of Jordans coming his way, compliments of teammate D.J. Jones.
The shoes, mind you, aren’t because of anything the second-year safety did, but rather for something he should have done.
On San Francisco’s first third-down try Sunday night, Sterns had quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo picked off cleanly. He robbed the middle of the field, broke on an in-route to tight end George Kittle and had visions of a pick-six running through his mind.
“It was really clean. My eyes were really big. I knew it was just coming,” Sterns said this week.
