The San Francisco 49ers kicked off organized team activities (OTAs) Monday. However, the first on-field session was not open to the media. Reporters will take a first look at the players on Tuesday.
The 49ers offered a glimpse of Monday’s action and released video of players practicing.
The video offers a quick look at Trey Lance, last year’s No. 3 overall, and many others. Most expect the quarterback to be the 49ers’ starter in sophomore 2022. There was no shortage of national media to question his willingness to lead offense after serving as Jimmy Garoppolo’s backup last season and starting just two games as a rookie.
OTAs will be Lance’s first opportunity for the 22-year-old quarterback to calm his skeptics.
Head coach Kyle Shanahan and various players are scheduled to speak to reporters after Tuesday’s practice session.

49ers legend Bryant Young gives this advice to Trey Lance
San Francisco 49ers quarterback Trey Lance is gearing up for his second NFL season and likely his first as a full-time starter. He had two starts during his rookie campaign, but only because veteran Jimmy Garoppolo was injured. 49ers legend Bryant Young played defensive end for 14 years, all with San Francisco.
