Why John Lynch’s remarks about the 49ers QB situation aren’t final

John Lynch spoke about the QB position at the combine in Indianapolis without a clear timeline for Brock Purdy’s recovery. His comments that day pointed to Purdy, if and when healthy, being first in line for QB1 snaps.

Purdy’s timeline has been set and led to Lynch’s comments at the NFL owners’ meetings on Monday about the QB position.

“I think Brock has probably earned that right to be the guy. If we were to line up, he’d probably take that first snap.”
