The San Francisco 49ers bid farewell to one of the franchise’s all-time best and most favorite players, left tackle Joe Staley, entering the 2020 season. The former first-round NFL Draft pick from 2007 was a mainstay for the franchise for years and deserves all the accolades and praise showered upon him as a Niners forever great.
It’s only a shame San Francisco wasn’t able to get Staley a Super Bowl ring during his tenure.
The big-name players and playmakers, especially quarterbacks and wide receivers, typically get all the love. And yet it’s so easy to forget one of the most crucial position groups in football: the offensive line.
