I remember Tim Ryan reporting on the 2022 training camp about the QBs. He mentioned Jimmy, and Lance, and Sudfeld. Then he said the 49ers have this Brock Purdy kid that they drafted at the end of the draft. The kid is showing some pretty good stuff. I wouldn't be surprised to see him beat our Sudfeld for a roster spot (my recollection of Ryan's comments).
This sorta maybe explains all the designed runs for Trey?...
or am I?
I think it's insane to think that Kyle TRIED to get lance hurt. I think it speaks more to what most of us thought, which was that kyle didn't think/trust Lance to throw. so he tried to take advantage of his best physical assets.
Kyle didn't need to get lance hurt to do anything, but I do think he owed him the chance to play and see what he could do, but he ended up getting hurt pretty quickly.
Then I think he owed the team to start the guy he thought he was best to help their chances win a SB.
just cause he sees a lot of potential with Brock, didn't mean he was ready to play. Brock was a rookie and he hadn't done any of it in game action. it was all in training camp, doesn't mean it would translate, at least initially. I have no issue with kyle doing what he did and the order he did it in.
