Vernon Davis blames terrible 2014 on game planning

San Francisco 49ers tight end Vernon Davis had a terrible 2014 season that saw him produce the worst statistics of his NFL career. Davis finished the year with just 245 receiving yards and two touchdowns—both of which came during the season-opener.

Davis now blames his lousy season on former offensive coordinator Greg Roman’s offensive schemes, according to Matt Barrows of The Sacramento Bee:

“Whenever I’d run, like, my deep over routes there was a safety sitting over there already. It was just game planning. And nothing really ever opened up. But I wasn’t really ever a factor in the offense last year.
