Shanahan: Marcell Harris, Tarvarius Moore will compete for starting roles in 2019

The San Francisco 49ers have been having issues with their secondary for what seems like the entire season. Be it poor play or recent injuries, they are playing backups of backups just to finish out the year and look to 2019.

Well, that has allowed the rookies to come in and have their shot. In Week 16 against the Chicago Bears both safety Marcell Harris and cornerback Tarvarius Moore got their starts and held their own. Moore managed to force a fumble against the Bears, and defended two passes as well in the 49ers loss to the Bears.
