Trey Lance Has Been Inconsistent

Trey Lance

The San Francisco 49ers decided this offseason to officially turn the page to second year quarterback Trey Lance, moving on from Jimmy Garoppolo. However, that move could instead put a damper on the 49ers 2022 campaign if Lance continues to struggle.  

Lance finished Saturday’s training camp practice with a flourish, but it didn’t carry over to Sunday. He completed just four of his 12 passes on Sunday, which included a bad interception that was forced during the final period of the day. Receiver Brandon Aiyuk came to the defense of his quarterback, saying that Lance was unfazed about the poor performance, believing he could improve moving forward. 

Aiyuk and Lance appear to be in a good spot relationship wise, which could mean big things for the duo this season even if the Niners end up having a poor season. The team may not have a clue as to how he’ll play this season, along with the growing pains he’ll almost certainly experience, but Lance has displayed maturity as a young quarterback whose dual threat skills will make him a threat in fantasy formats right away.

From a fantasy and betting perspective, keep an eye on Aiyuk as a name to watch this season, given his rapport with Lance. Get in on the action by betting the over 775.5 receiving yards for him, priced at -115 on DraftKings.
