49ers set themselves up for unexpected WR logjam once reinforcements arrive

The San Francisco 49ers have an underlying issue on offense. Aside from the injuries to starting quarterback Brock Purdy and All-Pro tight end George Kittle, the passing game have a big problem on the horizon.

The Niners have too many receivers on the roster and only one ball.

And, as the old expression goes, "too many cooks spoil the broth."
