On the San Francisco 49ers podcast with David:

#1 Dave, all signs have pointed toward 49er starting quarterback Brock Purdy returning to the practice squad. Purdy is expected to make opening day in Pittsburgh on Sep 10.

#2 Quarterback Trey Lance was on the first team taking snaps earlier this spring in practices with the expected third string quarterback Sam Darnold who is the No. 3 selection from 2018. Lance and Darnold are trying out for the second string position with Lance the clear front runner.

#3 Dave, Darnold if given the opportunity has a lot of receivers to throw to. There is a lot of talented weapons for Darnold if given the opportunity to throw to. Darnold has signed with the 49ers for one season.
