San Francisco 49ers star Trey Lance declined to comment on rumours linking the quarterback with a trade to the Minnesota Vikings.
Lance was the starter for the 49ers at the start of the 2022 season but he suffered an ankle injury that prematurely ended his campaign in Week 2. Jimmy Garoppolo returned to the fold as his replacement only to also go down with a season-ending injury in Week 13, which opened the door for Brock Purdy.
Purdy is the reigning ‘Mr. Irrelevant’ after he was selected with the 262nd and final pick in the 2022 NFL Draft. But he rapidly transitioned from third-string quarterback to starter.
