To be fair, it isn't as if this was the hottest competition during 49ers training camp.
Whatever "official" means regarding winning starting jobs out of training camp, it seems as if offensive lineman Ben Bartch has officially won the job of starting left guard for the San Francisco 49ers.
As shared by NBC Sports Bay Area's Jennifer Lee Chan over the weekend, Niners offensive line coach Chris Foerster effectively named Bartch as the first-team left guard, putting a stop to what was a brief competition with fellow lineman Nick Zakelj.
