Nuggets: Schedule release week (forreal this time)

How 49ers rookies Pearsall, Puni both are inspired by their mothers

“Pearsall’s mother, Erin, worked three jobs to provide for her four children while earning her real estate license. Puni’s mother Jessica, who also has four children, worked three jobs as a nurse. Incredibly, both mothers still found ways to attend each of their son’s games throughout their college careers.

“That word sacrifice means so much for her, because she was flying out to all my games to make sure I felt love and supported throughout my entire career,” Pearsall told NBC Sports Bay Area. “That means the world to me, but I think that sacrifice goes even deeper.”

San Francisco 49ers are making a very smart choice with second-round rookie Renardo Green

“Green learning the nickel spot could allow him to play meaningful inside snaps as a rookie and lessen the burden on Lenoir. At the same time, being able to play two positions would make Green an ideal successor to Lenoir, who at 24 is excellently placed to earn a very lucrative contract on the open market, one that may be beyond the financial means of the Niners in a year in which they will need to pay quarterback Brock Purdy.”

49ers DC Nick Sorensen subtly put Samuel Womack on the hot seat

“While Sorensen didn’t come out and say it directly, this announcement about Green implies that Womack’s job and roster spot as a backup nickel won’t be safe. Even if Green is pegged as a year-one backup, likely supporting Lenoir while either Yiadom or Ya-Sin take the other boundary spot opposite Ward, Womack potentially gets left out of the equation altogether.”
