The 49ers and Seahawks have swapped starting cornerbacks.

Despite the fact that some experts are already picking the 49ers to make the NFC Championship Game next year, Joe Montana isn’t ready to anoint Jimmy Garoppolo just yet.

The pair worked together in Washington for three seasons, and Shanahan consistently voiced his affinity for Cousins. Then the 49ers negotiated with the New England […]
