If Keith Lewis Stays Who Goes?

If K. Lewis stays, who goes?

Recently signed S Keith Lewis was a special team standout with the 49ers. If he can impress enough to help our ailing special teams and keep his job after Wesley returns then who goes? Who can we release that could be expendable without serious depth concerns?

If Lewis plays well, we may keep him because remember...we do not have another legit safety behind Harris.

We have too many corners and frankly, Martin is a project. I think we could put him on the practice squad. I seriously doubt he'll get picked up. Either that or Martin could get a hangnail and get IRed.

i'm not sure who should be released but, imo, wesley is now a must for special teams. you know that returners are going to be worried about him getting there. gunners are supposed to strike fear in the heart of the returner and make them not want to touch that ball. who better than someone who was just suspended for knocking another returner out? wesley was less than a half second form having a clean hit. if lewis can do a good job as a gunner then no way should we let him go. keep him and wesley and cut some underachiever on the roster. as poorly as we have covered punts we need to have gunners who can at least make the returner hesitate.

Only person I see him conceivably threatening is Quinton Teal, but I too think he's a temp.
this would be the right call...giving teal the boot in favor of lewis. teal is pretty useless. he's not a good special teamer and he's not a good safety at all. if you can't do one or the other well then you shouldn't be on the team.

      Panthers sign Hunter Renfrow

      he averaged 2 yards in YAC per reception last year.  He can't generate quick separation.  He was debating retirement last year.    Yet we champion him as some great option.    AT is a savvy vet we force feed the ball too......on a team starved for basic offense the last couple seasons.  We overrated AT.  Which is why some freak when people like JT on his podcast point out the painfully obvious about him.

      The Athletic has us ranked 28th on their post-draft power rankings, mainly due to us picking T-Mc instead of defense in round 1. They recognize we needed WR help, but... https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/6317651/2025/04/29/nfl-power-rankings-post-draft-rookies-eagles-chiefs-bills/

      I mean, he is a slot technician.  That's what he does.  So, in a good offense, you would be trotting him out there on 3rd downs and situationally.....to not take what they give him but to move chains.  It's a niche.  AT hasn't threatened defenses in years.  Last time we saw Renfrow on the field he averaged..... 6 yards YAC per catch.  Adam Thielen last year averaged....2 yards in YAC per catch last year.  I still contend in reality, AT isn't a slot WR.  Not in reality.  He is an aging rec TE.  And those aren't the same thing.  AT simply can't generate quick separation or provide YAC.
