Before Los Angeles Chargers backup quarterback Trey Lance became one of the standout players of the ongoing preseason, he failed to cement himself as a long-term option for the San Francisco 49ers

The 49ers are contemplating placing Givens on IR to start the year. Shanahan said the team has several decisions to make on IR slots. Guerendo has missed most of camp with a shoulder injury. He returned Tuesday and Shanahan explained some of the reason for the second-year RB's extended absence.

Now he has a different breakdown: if starting from scratch, who would he hire as head coach? San Francisco 49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan or Los Angeles Chargers (and former 49ers) head coach Jim Harbaugh.

Now the 49ers are set to face Lance as they take on the Chargers for their final preseason game. Though Lance didn't end up as the 49ers' franchise quarterback as they expected, coach Kyle Shanahan—who was a driving force in drafting Lance—is still rooting for Lance to succeed.

The Kansas City Chiefs are getting something in return for a former second-round pick who was on the bubble to make the 53-man roster at training camp.

The San Francisco 49ers saw three players go down with injuries on Saturday. Here's what Kyle Shanahan said after the game.
