Eli Harold’s relentless play has been a highlight of San Francisco 49ers training camp.
In fact, the third-round pick was recently praised by defensive coordinator Eric Mangini for his play thus far.
“He’s got a tremendous motor, which is the starting point," Mangini said of the outside linebacker. "He’s intensely competitive. He’s one of those guys that you always have to tell them to hurry, but don’t rush, and slow down, get your reads because he’s so quick off the ball, he’s so quick to read and react, which is a good thing."
Harold’s speed up the field has stood out in 1-on-1 pass-rushing drills and 11-on-11 periods in camp.
