Coach Kyle Shanahan told reporters Lance is completely healthy and probably "the best that we've (seen) him right now," NBC's Matt Maiocco reports. "When you watch [Lance's] feet, his timing, how he's throwing the ball, he's in such a better place now than he was last year at this time," Shanahan said Wednesday.
San Francisco has received inquiries from teams around the league about trading Lance (ankle), Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
A one-year starter at FCS powerhouse North Dakota State turned into the No. 3 pick in the 2021 NFL Draft and has all the tools to be an upper-level NFL quarterback. He is supremely mobile with a good enough arm that should get better as he matures. He also displays a solid football IQ despite his lack of experience. He has to resist the temptation to be a hero when he is running and learn to slide well enough to minimize collisions that can result in injuries.
Long Range Potential: Talented dual-threat quarterback with high upside.
