Steve Young on Trey Lance: He’s a better player after this offseason

On Wednesday, Steve Young joined the Tolbert and Copes show on KNBR to discuss the 49ers. Naturally, the former quarterback was asked about the current quarterback situation.

Young was quick to point out that he believes Lance is a better player after this offseason:

“He’s gotten better. He is a better player after this offseason.

And I don’t know that he’s not seeing it. I think what’s happened is he’s now squeezed, where every throw is a referendum on whether he’s any good or not.

Because he doesn’t have a lot of college or even pro money in the bank, just that the ability to kind of go out and play and show people what I could do.
