With Kyle Nelson suspended for 10 games, the 49ers had to get someone in there to handle long snapping duties and they turned to Colin Holba. Is he flashy? Not really. Did he do enough in 2018 for the 49ers to have a long snapping competition of epic proportions? Nah.
Holba is here to fill in for Nelson. The 49ers have signed Nelson to an extension which is almost a stay of execution for Holba. Once Nelson is off suspension, Holba is expendable.
But could he carve a spot out elsewhere?
