Kyle Shanahan made an interesting and slightly confusing comment in his press conference Wednesday: that his playbook was scrambled because all of the 49ers who can play the “F position” were injured.
Wait, the what position?
I know this is probably hard to understand, but we have an ‘F’ position and that ‘F’ position when we are in 21 personnel is [FB Kyle Juszczyk] Juice. When we’re in 12 it’s [TE George] Kittle or [TE] Cole Hikutini. When we’re in 11, it’s [WR] Trent Taylor. It’s all the same position.
