49ers insert Trenton Brown at RT, move Erik Pears to RG in 2nd quarter vs. Falcons

The San Francisco 49ers continue their rotation at right guard, and in Week 9 against the Atlanta Falcons we saw the most notable change thus far. Previously Andrew Tiller and Jordan Devey were splitting snaps. This week, the 49ers started with that rotation, but then they made a big change midway through the second quarter. Right tackle Erik Pears moved in at right guard, and rookie offensive tackle Trenton Brown moved in at right tackle.

I am not entirely sure what got this move made, but it is nice to see Brown get some chances at right tackle.
