The San Francisco 49ers signed safety Ashtyn Davis to a one-year contract on June 2, 2026, adding depth to their secondary as they gear up for another grueling campaign.
On the player front, star tight end George Kittle joined The Pat McAfee Show to deliver some good news regarding his physical rehab. Kittle reported, "My goal is to be healthy for week one. I'm slightly ahead of schedule,‒ and added that "the Niner boys, we are very excited" about the team's newly acquired talent.
While Kittle is hyped about the roster, others are focused on the demanding environment head coach Kyle Shanahan creates. On Pardon My Take, host Big Cat pointed out Shanahan's habit of taking the team out of their comfort zone, referencing the trips to "West Virginia, where, like, Kyle Shanahan will make the 49ers stay" at the Greenbrier.
With new defensive additions and key veterans returning to health, the pressure is on Kyle Shanahan to finally deliver a championship. Whether these team-bonding trips and roster adjustments are enough to get the San Francisco 49ers over the hump remains the biggest question of the summer.
