Description

Mac Jones might have rebooted his career in the 49ers' 26-21 win over the New Orleans Saints on Sunday at Caesars Superdome. Under the tutelage of San Francisco coach Kyle Shanahan, Jones looked the part of an NFL starting quarterback with a 279-yard, three-touchdown performance as an injured Brock Purdy watched from the sideline. Matt Maiocco and Jennifer Lee Chan break down how the 49ers' offense utilized Jones' arm early and often, and also identify which rookies stepped up amid injuries on both offense and defense ahead of next weekend's home opener against the Arizona Cardinals.
