The SF 49ers climbed up the ranks of the annual FanSided 250 list, thanks largely to some star power and last season’s Super Bowl appearance.
While the SF 49ers‘ 2020 season hasn’t exactly gone according to plan, there’s little doubting the team generated plenty of buzz heading into this year by dominating the NFC portion of the playoffs following the 2019 regular season and coming within minutes of winning Super Bowl LIV over the Kansas City Chiefs.
Along with some serious star power from standout players like tight end George Kittle, quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo and EDGE Nick Bosa, there was no shortage of buzz surrounding head coach Kyle Shanahan’s squad heading into this season.
