49ers may not like Adam Schefter’s latest Aaron Donald update
“He told the team that he wanted to go there, work out, see how he felt, see how he reacted, see everything that went along with being back in pads, on the football field, and seeing how it made him feel,” Schefter said.
“Now, I don’t know what he told them about that after he went through those workouts at the facility, but I really think it was just a trial method to see how his whole body reacted, how his mind reacted to being back out there.”
49ers roster preview: Wesley Grimes makes sense as a practice squad stash
“Grimes had the profile of a Shanahan receiver. His average depth of target was 12.9 yards at North Carolina State. He average a hair over five yards after the catch. He had a 20 yard reception in six separate games. A good portion of his production came on in-breaking routes and he was efficient on targets beyond 20 yards.
Grimes has an ideal baseline to work with. At 22, you can use the same aggression he has after the catch and attempt to use that in his blocking. Grimes may not have the ceiling of a WR1, but the tools are there. The same kind of tools the 49ers have lacked at the position in recent seasons.”
Oft-injured 49ers WR Trent Taylor retires after season on IR: ‘Football gave me everything’ (paywall)
“Football gave me everything,” Taylor wrote on Instagram. “All of my lifelong friendships. All of the adversity and life lessons It taught me along the way. Nothing else in this world breaks you down and teaches you who you are like the game of football does. The dog days and the relationships built within it are what’s going to be missed the most.”
