Quarterback Trey Lance was back at practice on Thursday after losing the backup quarterback job in San Francisco.
49ers general manager John Lynch appeared on KNBR in San Francisco today and said the 49ers are exploring all options with Lance but there is still a good chance he will remain with the 49ers.
"That's the most likely option," Lynch said. "We're very happy with Trey. The most likely option is that he's here. If we can find a landing spot for Trey that is a really good one for him and works for our organization, that's not something that we'd turn a blind eye to. But that's not where our focus is right now. Our focus is on Trey getting back here and us being the best football team. We're getting close to Pittsburgh [in Week 1]."
Lynch said that Lance handled the situation well.
"Trey handled it incredibly well, with class," Lynch said. "He was devastated, and rightly so. When you put your heart and soul into something and it doesn't come to fruition, you're going to be devastated. That's the type of competitor he is. But we're in a good place, he'll be back in the building today and we're moving forward."
