This just keeps getting weirder.

Shanny wasn't calling Lance an MVP or saying he was gonna have 40 TDs and 5,000 yards before the season started.
Shanahan in his KNBR interview said that 49ers determined after 2020 that they'd eventually need a QB on a rookie deal to keep their roster sustainable.

The initial plan was for that QB to be Trey Lance. Plans changed and the chosen QB became Brock Purdy. Same destination https://t.co/yK90FHnfTa

Yup I agree with all of that too. I'll just say that he has human leverage and as much as people want to say Kyle and John are cold I think they'd be ok doing what's right for Trey. You do that every chance you have for anyone that works for you.
all the players call the 9ers a first class organization and I believe that no matter what people on X say
I do think they'd do that, but mostly because it lines up with their own interest.
I want them to be cold and calculated when it comes to these kinds of decisions, personally. The players are tools to do a job, lol.

Lol, he was not. But he did treat him like an established QB1 right up until the end of TC, which was just as absurd from a practical standpoint.
In all reality, the 49ers traded three 1st round picks to get a franchise QB because they have a WIN NOW roster. They found him. Just happens to be it's Brock Purdy and not Trey Lance. Mission accomplished. Move on.

He was trying to develop him like every damn team does with their highly invested young QB. By giving the reps and playing him. Not benching him for a full yr.
shocking a 20 yr old kid, with 300 career passing attempts (since 2019) wasn't lights out the first moment he got on the field. Kid needed to play and if they weren't gonna allow that to happen, then they f**ked up the pick. Plain and simple.
