The team needs bodies, as Jason Verrett, Ken Webster, Ambry Thomas, Demmodore Lenoir, and Mark Fields have been dividing reps into the first, second, and third teams.
Webb played with 49ers senior defensive assistant James Bettcher when he was the Giants defensive coordinator in 2018, so there’s some familiarity.
