Brian Flores: I think Tua Tagovailoa is taking more shots downfield August 4, 2021

Mohamed Sanu’s second stint with the 49ers seems to be going a lot better than the first August 4, 2021
Receiver Mohamed Sanu‘s career fell off a cliff after being traded from the Falcons to the Patriots for a second-round pick during the 2019 regular season.

Penei Sewell: First padded practice like first sip of water in the desert August 4, 2021
