Trey Lance's Spring Stats Weren't Very Impressive
2 years agoSan Francisco 49ers quarterback Trey Lance may have a more streamlined throwing motion this year, but it didn't exactly translate into pretty stats during spring workouts. He went 11-for-19 (57.9%) in 11-on-11 sessions that were open to reporters this week. Lance completed 54.7% of his passes last summer, and the Niners would love to see that jump into the 60% range this year. Sam Darnold went 9-for-17 on his passes (52.9%) in 11-on-11 drills. None of the signal-callers really stood out, which is typical for this time of year in a small sample size. The biggest takeaway for the 23-year-old Lance is that he's fully healthy finally and has impressed the team with how he's looked overall. The 49ers still have confidence in the former first-rounder, but he's expected to start the year on the bench behind Brock Purdy (elbow).
