SANTA CLARA, Calif. — This is Trey Lance’s team. That’s what coach Kyle Shanahan clearly stated Tuesday, alluding to the almighty role of 49ers’ starting quarterback.
“Did he say that? Nice,” tight end George Kittle responded. “I can’t wait.”
Look, this is also Deebo Samuel’s team. And Trent Williams’. And Nick Bosa’s. Maybe Fred Warner’s, Jimmie Ward’s, Arik Armstead’s or the understated running backs’.
