The San Francisco 49ers are a bit light at outside linebacker in OTAs. This benefits Corey Lemonier, but will it be enough for him to earn a roster spot?
The San Francisco 49ers are two-thirds of the way through their OTAs, and Corey Lemonier is one player potentially benefiting from injuries. Aaron Lynch has been sitting out OTAs due to a hamstring strain, which boosts Lemonier up the depth chart.
During last Friday's open session, Ahmad Brooks was present at the practice, but did not participate. With Lynch also injured, Lemonier moved into the starting lineup opposite Aldon Smith.
