C Ben Garland

Garland wasn’t terrible in his first start in place of Weston Richburg, but there were some bad reps that led directly to the unraveling of some plays. He has to be better against Donald and the Rams, and ensure the line is on the same page to keep Garoppolo upright. There were a slew of issues a week ago that led to the 49ers’ sluggish offensive effort. If they struggle again Sunday, the spotlight may turn toward Garland depending on how well he plays against a good interior defensive front.
