The 49ers couldn’t have been satisfied with reserve safety Marcell Harris’ pass coverage the last two years, meaning he’s now on the bubble entering 2021.
At one point late in 2018, there was a small but noticeable discussion suggesting the San Francisco 49ers could replace oft-injured strong safety Jaquiski Tartt with that year’s rookie, Marcell Harris, heading into 2019 and beyond.
After all, Tartt was just one of a number of injured defenders that year who allowed players like Harris to get some additional field time.
