49ers receivers are still missing in action
This article is my idea of what Kyle Shanahan, Nick Mullens, and the receiver corps would do to prepare for the upcoming game versus Tampa Bay. Although the Giants game seems so long ago, there’s some things that carry over from week to week with this group.
First thing I’ve noticed as the year has transpired is that our receivers are not the focal point of our offense. Kyle’s stance appears to be finding mismatches with the tight ends, mainly George Kittle, and the backs running routes. Our wide receivers, while they are running routes, I find them often clearing out areas of the field, or creating rubs on defenders covering Kittle, or Matt Brieda.
