Brock Purdy resumed his throwing program, Trey Lance looked healthy and showed off his improved mechanics and Sam Darnold got acclimated to a new offense.
The San Francisco 49ers ended their offseason program and headed off for summer break with some encouraging signs about their quarterback room despite many lingering questions that won't really start to get answered until they reconvene in late July for the start of training camp.
San Francisco 49ers' Trey Lance, left, speaks with fellow quarterback Sam Darnold, right, during an NFL football practice, Wednesday, June 7, 2023, in Santa Clara, Calif."We're taking it very slowly," coach Kyle Shanahan said this week."It's not like you just jump out and push stuff.
"He's got an unbelievable start to his career," quarterbacks coach Brian Griese said."Now, there's a lot of things that Brock can and needs to get better at for this team to go where we want to go. Brock and I, we've had that conversation, and he knows. He's the first one to tell you. That's normal, too, for a young player. So I'm excited to get him back, get him healthy, and see how good he can be.
But Lance spent his rookie season mostly as a backup to Jimmy Garoppolo and was hindered in his two starts by a broken finger. Lance then went down with a season-ending ankle injury in Week 2 last year and has only four mostly pedestrian starts in his brief career. Darnold was also a former No. 3 overall pick but has had little success so far in his career with struggling teams on the New York Jets and Carolina Panthers.
