In Week 13, with Beathard nursing a wrist injury, Mullens got the start, and the 49ers beat the Oakland Raiders, 34-3. Mullens’ collective performance was one of the season’s most pleasant surprises. He also lost to the Arizona Cardinals, who will pick No. Beathard gave the 49ers real chances to win at Los Angeles (Chargers) and Green Bay, but late mistakes prevented marquee road victories. Beathard lost all five of his starts, with each promising outing preceding a disappointing one. Then, newly acquired Jimmy Garoppolo swooped in and won five straight games, and the keys to the organization were handed over.īeathard did not show much improvement in his sophomore year with Garoppolo out for the season with a torn ACL. Beathard took one hard hit after the next throughout a six-game losing streak. As a rookie, he was thrown into a fruitless situation midway through the season, on a winless team at the time, with minimal playmakers. Shanahan has stood by Beathard, his 2017 third-round pick, through difficult circumstances. “We’ll flip a coin the first day,” Shanahan told reporters when he was asked about who will take the first rep. The backup quarterback job is up for grabs.
Beathard will enter training camp on a level playing field. On Tuesday, at the annual owners meetings in Phoenix, Kyle Shanahan said Mullens and C.J. In the third year of the Kyle Shanahan-John Lynch six-year plan, the 49ers have finally fielded a deep enough roster to promote competition at most starting spots, contrary to last year.ĭespite Nick Mullens’ encouraging 2018 performance, he is not excluded from that line of thinking. Instead of joining the staff in New York, Snee accepted a role at his alma mater as an analyst for Boston College.Competition has been a theme throughout the 2019 offseason. When Snee was with New York, he served as an All-Pro guard and won a Super Bowl.
GIANTS BACKUP QB FULL

We wrote recently about the recently extended timeline for the recovery of Cowboys offensive tackle Tyron Smith.Here are a few other rumors from around the NFC East, starting with another rumor from the Lone Star state: Unless McCarthy and the Cowboys plan on elevating Rush to the active roster sometime before the season starts, they may just intend on fully dedicating one of the those weekly promotion spots to Rush or Grier to serve as a gameday backup. Due to COVID-19, a rule was established allowing teams to promote practice squad players to the active roster for gamedays.
