Former Jets quarterback Sam Darnold beat out Trey Lance in the 49ers’ backup QB competition.
It’s a shocking turn of events with Darnold, the No. 3 overall pick in the 2018 NFL Draft, supplanting Lance, the No. 3 overall pick in the 2021 NFL Draft.to trade up to No. 3 in 2021 to pick Lance, sending the Dolphins the No. 12 overall pick in 2021, first- and third-round picks in 2022 and a first-round pick in 2023.

The Dolphins ironically could be one of the teams interested in trading for Lance now that he appears done in San Francisco. as one of three potential Lance trade partners, in part because former 49ers offensive coordinator Mike McDaniel is now the Dolphins’ head coach and Tua Tagovailoa has reliability issues.Behind door No. 2 is the Vikings, who have the aging Kirk Cousins, 35, entering the final year of his contract.earlier this year at the NFL Scouting Combine, according to Pro Football Talk.
