The San Francisco 49ers are right in the middle of training camp, as battles for starting roles have begun.
With a younger roster, there’s less certainty with the team this offseason, which means more spots are available to grab heading into the preseason. One of those spots is the third cornerback behind starters Deommodore Lenoir and Renardo Green.
The 49ers didn’t make many notable moves this offseason, especially in free agency, but they did add former Seattle Seahawks cornerback Tre Brown on a one-year, $1.7 million deal.
That contract doesn’t guarantee Brown any roster spot, but the veteran cornerback has reportedly been working primarily with the first-team defense, seeing time in the nickel and the outside.
