Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott hugs San Francisco 49ers tight end George Kittle after the 49ers victory in an NFL divisional round playoff football game on Sunday, Jan. 22, 2023, in Santa Clara, Calif.Between 2 and 5:30 p.m. Sunday while you are watching the Eagles and 49ers contend for a trip to the Super Bowl, it will likely be mentioned more than once that one quarterback is an NFL MVP finalist and the other a stunning Rookie of the Year finalist.
The 49ers weren’t looking for a quarterback last April. They were trying to move one. But with no great offers for Jimmy Garoppolo, they hung onto the former Super Bowl quarterback as a backup to Trey Lance, taken with the third overall pick last year. At the end of the draft — the 262nd pick — the 49ers figured they might as well grab someone to take practice reps since Garoppolo was going to be recovering from injury for awhile.
Needless to say, adding a young quarterback as a future hope is hardly the Cowboys’ only draft need. As you watch the Eagles and 49ers, it will again be readily apparent that even with Dalton Schultz — a player likely to be cut loose by Dallas, both for salary reasons and his own inattention to detail at the end of the 49ers game — the Cowboys aren’t close at tight end.
