We still need to see if Brandon Aiyuk is going to apply for reinstatement. George Kittle is coming back from injury. He feels like he’s going to be ready for that season opener in Australia against the Rams, but the 49ers may be very careful. And let’s see if he can make it back. I don’t think it’s a given just yet.
They have a new defensive coordinator in Raheem Morris, who will be the fifth different defensive coordinator in the last 5 years. Now, they love Raheem Morris. They’ve wanted him to do that job for a while. I think Kyle Shanahan is very happy to have him back there. But it’s another new defensive coordinator, as they try to work in some of their players coming back from knee injuries — like their former No.1 draft pick, Mykel Williams. A lot of players trying to bounce back.
They do have Mike Evans, and that’ll be a big boost for the offense.
