Kyle Shanahan on Mac Jones’ reaction to when he was told Brock Purdy was starting on Sunday: “Honestly, it was awesome. He’s understood it the whole time. I think he had a real good idea that Brock was getting there, was going to be ready this week. It wasn’t something that I really had to have a big meeting with or anything, but I did before we went out on the practice field. I did call him in just to tell him how much I appreciated, how well he played during that time and to thank him for it. I was joking with just a second ago with Matt, but my wife always tells me I can give compliments more. I just assume people know, she goes, 'people don’t always just assume how you think'. I’m like, how can he not think that? I don’t need to tell him that. He definitely knows how good I think he played. But maybe my wife’s right. Maybe I should let him know. And so I just called him in and said that I appreciated it. And he’s like, 'hey man, I enjoyed it. I’m going to go have fun on the scout team today. And I’ll be ready if I’m ever needed again'. So Mac handled it great since the beginning. Him and Brock have been studs together in the room together. They help each other a ton. They enjoy each other. And I’m really pumped to have him this year and I’m really pumped that we have him next year also.” via: @KNBR
