49ers 90-in-90: OL Erik Magnuson

Erik Magnuson is an offensive lineman who can play any position on the line, a very valuable trait for a backup. The problem i doesn’t appear very good at any of them. He has seen limited action over the last two years, and it hasn’t been pretty (especially when he starts due to injury).

In 2017, he filled in at tackle for two games when Trent Brown was injured. The first, against the Eagles, was a disaster; C.J. Beathard took five sacks, and Magnuson was responsible for two of them.
