49ers defensive coordinator Nick Sorensen spoke for the first time in his new position where he spoke at lengths about what the defense gains with Talanoa Hufanga coming back.
They couldn't find the stability there to be a consistent force to defend the run. It was where an offense could find efficiency against them to take advantage of and help their pass game.
He was an amazing eraser and essentially an extra linebacker for the 49ers. Luckily for the defense, Hufanga should be back in 2024 as he closes in on full recovery. On Friday,“Main thing with him is he's got experience and he is a heck of a player," said Sorensen. "I mean, he's really, really good at communicating, he's smart, he sees things, has a full understanding of our system, and when he gets back we're going to be excited. I know he is excited.
It'll be sweet for the 49ers to get Hufanga back. However, the key phrase here from Sorensen is "when he's ready" and that isn't fully clear yet. And whenever Hufanga does get back, who is to say what kind of player he will look like. It is not far fetched for Hufanga to be a shell of himself.
