The pressure on Trey Lance’s men is great. The rookie passer was a huge bet from the 49ers (who drafted him with the third overall pick in the 2021 Draft), but in order to Carson Wentz the above is not synonymous with failure.
In interview for NBC Sports, Wentz indicated that he met Lance at a softball event and He assured that the now member of San Francisco has all the elements to succeed in the NFL; He added that he gave him some tips to ease his transition to professional soccer.
“There will be a lot of things pulling in multiple directions. But I know Trey. He’s smart. He’s young and very mature. I know he’ll be fine. He’s in a great situation. They have a great culture in San Francisco, a good coaching staff. I know he will do a great job, I am excited for him. I repeat, let it be him: ‘Don’t let anything change who you are, change your values and your perspective on sport. Just play, ‘”he elaborated.
Unmatched support
To cast the words of Wentz they must mean a lot. The Colts quarterback was drafted in the 2016 Draft and was the first North Dakota State product to make it to the NFL during the inaugural draft round; five years later, the ‘Niners’ QB replied to his college partner.
Likewise, Wentz’s success in his early professional years paves the way for Lance. In his second NFL season, Carson proved that NCAA second division players can adapt to the league since he had a campaign that earned him entry into the contest for the MVP and led the Eagles to the Super Bowl – which he did not play due to injury.
Finally, Lance will start his career without the pressure that his counterpart experienced. While Wentz was a starter for Philadelphia since his rookie year, Trey you will learn the San Francisco offensive system as substitute for Jimmy Garoppolo.
