San Francisco 49ers: Don’t expect Zane Beadles to start in Week 2

After losing 23-3 to the Carolina Panthers to open up the 2017 season, the San Francisco 49ers may want to make a significant change along the offensive line.

And that change is to sit left guard Zane Beadles and replace him with recently acquired Laken Tomlinson.

As a whole, San Francisco’s O-line wasn’t particularly great in Week 1. Quarterback Brian Hoyer was under pressure almost constantly, and the Niners never really got their outside-zone running game going.

Beadles was a primary issue, giving up six quarterback pressures during the game, according to Pro Football Focus (h/t Jennifer Lee Chan of Niners Nation).
