The San Francisco 49ers have slowly seen a major training camp battle emerge over the first few weeks of the preseason, as second-year cornerback Renardo Green has impressed while getting major snaps.
As a result, he has seen all of the first-team reps at cornerback while Isaac Yiadom has dealt with an injury, seeing time both on the inside and the outside.
Heading into the third preseason game, what has been the coaching staff’s evaluation of Green?
“I wanted to give him the harder stuff early, because he hadn’t played in there [in the nickel],” defensive coordinator Nick Sorenson said about Green.
