What does the 49ers’ secondary need to do to join the NFL’s best?

The 49ers undoubtedly have a lot of talent on the back end of their defense, but there are doubts about their secondary as a collective, with those concerns illustrated by its position in Pro Football Focus’ rankings.

Despite boasting one of the better and most versatile cornerbacks in the league in Deommodore Lenoir and a promising second-year corner in Renardo Green, the 49ers’ secondary was ranked 23rd in the league by PFF.

Such a ranking points to the secondary being a consistent problem for the Niners as they look to produce a bounce-back season in 2025?
