SANTA CLARA – Watching Mike McGlinchey race 50 yards down field as a lead blocker was phenomenal.
It spoke volumes not only about the 49ers rookie right tackle but how this year’s top draft pick fits so well into coach Kyle Shanahan’s scheme.
“That’s what’s fun about Kyle’s offense – you get to show off your athletic ability with how we run and how we try and get out in front of guys,” McGlinchey said.
While Monday night’s visit by the New York Giants will showcase their Offensive Rookie of the Year favorite in Saquon Barkley, let’s not forget about how well McGlinchey is faring as a promising cornerstone for the Niners.
