Trey Lance was the talk of training camp Saturday after his best performance of the preseason. While the buzz from his outing dominated the conversation around the 49ers through the weekend and into Monday, head coach Kyle Shanahan was quick to knock down any notion that the rookie was in the running for the starting job.
Shanahan said to start camp there wouldn’t be an open quarterback competition but added that the player would start who gave them the best chance to win. The first step or Lance would be getting reps with the starters, but the head coach said that’s not happening any time soon.
