49ers unleash a youthful wave on the Broncos

Last Sunday’s contest versus the Denver Broncos yielded several highlights for the San Francisco 49ers. While George Kittle and Nick Mullens stole most of the spotlight, quietly the defense shut down one of the league’s most productive running backs. Phillip Lindsay is living the dream as an undrafted free agent who earned the starting gig. On the year he’s averaging 5.8 yards per carry and 74.4 yards per game.

He hit a scarlet and gold wall this past weekend however and managed only 30 yards at 2.14 yards a run.
