As 49ers players reported to Santa Clara for training camp on Tuesday, John Lynch and Kyle Shanahan met with the local media. During the session, San Francisco’s general manager and head coach were asked about several critical topics.
Here are my key takeaways.
Trey Lance is the starting quarterback.
Questions have swirled around the 49ers direction at quarterback throughout this offseason. Kyle Shanahan left no doubt about who his starter would be in 2022.
“We have moved on to Trey. We’re starting camp out this way,” said Shanahan.
Despite declaring Lance the starter, Shanahan and Lynch are not yet willing to release Garoppolo.
