Shanahan on the WRs: Guys are very evenly matched and I want someone to step it up

San Francisco 49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan had a brief conference call with the media where he announced linebacker Elijah Lee would miss two weeks with a broken thumb. The most noteworthy takeaway was Shanahan voicing his unhappiness once again with the wide receiver group. He’s been critical of Dante Pettis during the past week or so. Shanahan said that the wideouts are evenly matched at this point and wants somebody to step it up. He even mentioned how Deebo Samuel and Jalen Hurd—despite having good games—made mistakes, and can improve.
