The final preseason game is an opportunity for several players to make their final impressions on all the coaches around the leagues and solidify a roster spot. Like most teams in the league, the San Francisco 49ers won’t be playing many, if any, of their starters during the final dress rehearsal.
That means players on the roster bubble will get their time to show why they belong in the league. This is exactly the case for right-guard Joshua Garnett.
The 49ers traded up to draft Garnett at the end of the first round in the 2016 draft.
