No San Francisco 49ers wide receiver crested 500 receiving yards in 2018.
The Niners’ leading wideout last year was Kendrick Bourne, who led all teammates at this position with a mere 487 yards. And San Francisco hasn’t had a 1,000-yard wide receiver since former NFL great Anquan Boldin did it back in 2014.
That’s pretty bad.
So it should make sense fans are clamoring about the idea of Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Antonio Brown, the perennial Pro Bowler, possibly coming to San Francisco this offseason. He’d be a true top-tier impact player, a game changer of epic proportions for head coach Kyle Shanahan’s offense.
