Trey Lance is starting his third NFL season. That's when No. 3 overall picks of the draft are supposed to be taking off, if they haven't already.
Instead, Lance's career looks stuck. Though he didn't get a lot of help from the backups around him in the San Francisco 49ers' preseason opener on Sunday against the Las Vegas Raiders, Lance looked shaky. He looked hesitant many of his dropbacks, which perhaps should be expected from a quarterback who has barely played since the 2019 college season. He had too many mistakes.
