Ever the optimist, John Lynch seems to think this can still be done.
“You know, I’m not going to characterize any chances or anything,” he said. “I can tell you this, it’s been a long, arduous, hard process, a hard journey. We started this early and for whatever reason haven’t been able to get it across the finish line. That’s been frustrating, but the communication still has been really good both with Brandon and his agent, and we’re trying to figure out solutions. You know I’m always hopeful. I’m an optimistic person in nature, and I’m always hopeful that we’ll get there and get there soon. I can tell you, we feel the urgency to have him, the season’s approaching, and we have ample time.
“The good news is Brandon is a really, really hard worker, he’s taking great care of himself this offseason, he’s in fantastic shape, but there’s things you have to do on a football field and getting yourself in there with our team. So we’re working hard, and hopefully there’s a resolution soon. That’s all I can share with everyone, I understand the angst of everyone, I understand there’s been all kinds of stories and talk, that’s what people do these days. I don’t like that part of it, but we love BA as a player, I think you see it every time he goes out there representing the Niners, he’s a guy we traded up for in the first round back in the ’20 draft, I remember doing it from my guest house during the covid times, and we’re fortunate to have added him to our squad, and we’d really like to keep him around. So we’ll see how it goes.”
He’s in camp and was chatting with everyone today so I don’t get what the hold-up is but we will see.
I’m more worried about Williams but I’m SURE he signs once the preseason games are over.
San Francisco 49ers Forever 
According to Shanny, ‘most’ of the starters are playing tomorrow.
Williams is expected to sign and be ready for the opener as should banks and his broken finger. Feliciano and Bartch are still dealing with knee injuries.
Hufanga is progressing but won’t be ready for opening day. Pearsall is hurt again. Dealing with the same shoulder injury.
BA? Today?

Game Day…kinda.
Starters are in (not all) and we will get some idea of how they will look on both sides of the ball. If Purdy throws a pick the internet may break with all the stories of how over rated he is.
Purdy looks like a top 10 QB to me and hopefully he continues to improve and we can crown him alongside Joe and Steve with our 6th Lombardi!
Go Niners!!!
I am pretty confident that Purdy’s gonna improve this year probably a top 5 QB. It’s everyone else I am worried about. Both Kittle and Deebo are injury prone our Oline is still shakey to me and not yet convinced about our D even though I think we should be better than last year.
