As San Francisco 49ers training camp roles on, the chatter surrounding the team’s quarterback battle is getting louder by the day.

Pac-12 Network broadcaster Guy Haberman joined Whitey & Watkins on Wednesday to share his thoughts on the 49ers’ quarterback battle, discussed if the rumors surrounding Trey Lance’s “shaky” standing on the roster are true, and much more.

Plus: Will rookie kicker Jake Moody make an impact on the heels of Robbie Gould’s exit?

Topics Discussed

  • Is Trey Lance on “shaky ground” with the San Francisco 49ers?
  • Where does Trey Lance currently stand in the 49ers’ quarterback competition?
  • Is this quarterback competition a ‘positive’ for San Francisco because of the several options that are involved?
  • Is it possible that rookie kicker Jake Moody will be an upgrade from Robbie Gould?
  • “It’s hard to upgrade on perfect in the playoffs, which is what Robbie was. Those are the pressure kicks… I hope he has a good preseason and gets off on the right foot.”
