Rookie Surge Expected in 2026
Description
The 49ers are firing on all cylinders for 2026, with Brock Purdy locked in at QB and Christian McCaffrey still dominating. The big splash? Mike Evans, now in San Francisco, aiming to stay healthy and deliver elite production. But the real story? Three rookies making waves: speedster De’Zhaun Stribling ready to shine alongside Evans, running back Kaelon Black poised to ease McCaffrey’s load, and massive linebacker Jaden Dugger showing he’s ready to contribute right away. Shanahan’s got his eyes on the future—and these rookies could be the key to another deep playoff run.
