Could a position switch for rookie 49ers tight end Chase Harrell help the former Arkansas Razorback’s wide receiver acclimate to the NFL?

The San Francisco 49ers must have liked what they saw from former Arkansas Razorback tight end Chase Harrell during his 2020 pro day, at least enough to make him a prime undrafted free-agent target once the NFL Draft wrapped up last April.

Harrell has an interesting story leading up his UDFA selection by San Francisco. He spent his first three collegiate years at Kansas, then transferred to Arkansas in 2018 where he rounded out his college career.
