Summary
Mac Jones might just be the backup QB the 49ers didn’t want to trade — and now he’s got them sweating. San Francisco’s asking too much for his departure, betting big on his value as a reliable starter if Brock Purdy gets hurt. Jones isn’t content to be second-string forever — he’s eyeing the starting role, and if he delivers under pressure, he could force a QB showdown that shakes the Bay Area. The Niners hope Purdy stays healthy and stays put — but Jones might just be waiting for his moment to shine. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
