Dominant Defensive Line
The manufacturing from the line of defense was overwhelming at instances throughout 11-on-11 drills. Middle Tyler Linderbaum and rookie Malaesala Aumavae-Laulu appeared to endure the brunt of problem.
Linderbaum pulls and it appears to be like like Aumavae-Laulu has a attain block (?) on Pierce however fails to get there in time. Pierce blows by means of and will get a deflection.

Tight Ends Proceed Making Performs
The offensive set up hasn’t fairly delivered the extensive receiver highlights many have hoped for over the primary few days. It’s early, nevertheless it’s been powerful sledding at instances. However when a play must be made, search for Nos. 89 and 80, as Mark Andrews and Isaiah Seemingly have come by means of.
Seemingly caught a couple of balls at this time, each a protracted catch in the course of the sector and a landing from quarterback Tyler Huntley.
Harbaugh praised the manufacturing from Seemingly this coaching camp, one thing he was shined in final season, too.
