19 years and the 49ers have had just three (3) long snappers. There was Brian Jennings who played Old Faithful from 2000-2012, and then Kevin McDermott who took the duty in 2013. Kyle Nelson showed up in 2014 and has had the job since.
Nelson bounced around the league, including stops with the 49ers before getting snapped up for long snapping duties. His main position is tight end, and at this point, if you see him lining up there, something has gone horribly, horribly wrong. While Nelson hasn’t gotten into the Pro Bowl as a long snapper, he’s been a solid choice.
