I know that some of you are tired of the coverage of the 49ers’ quarterback performance so far in training camp. I am nothing if not fair, so in lieu of another post about how Trey Lance is slowly but surely chipping away at Jimmy Garoppolo’s hold on the starting job, I thought I’d pass along a little bit of love for one of my favorite players of all-time: Steve Young.
(Full disclosure there’s also a ton of Trey Lance/Jimmy G. stuff in today’s Stats & Eggs podcast).
The Athletic has been counting down the 100 greatest players in NFL history, and Young landed at number 49 on their list.
