The San Francisco 49ers got themselves quite the special teams hammer when they took Adrian Colbert in the 2017 draft. Whether he’s flying around the field as a corner or laying the wood as a safety will be yet to be determined—right now he’s got a chance to be an ace on special teams. Colbert’s college background as safety and corner immediately makes him versatile as they zero on what position they want him to specialize in in the future.
He’s also got a great story too. Not just the fact his cousin Marquise Goodwin is on the team, but it seems like he has a bit of a darker past that he’s put behind him to focus on football.
