Josh Dobbs, Nick Sorensen, Chris Foerster preview 49ers-Cardinals Week 18 matchup
“San Francisco 49ers defensive coordinator Nick Sorensen, offensive line/run game coordinator Chris Foerster, and quarterback Josh Dobbs spoke to reporters after Thursday’s practice as the team prepares for its Week 18 matchup against the Arizona Cardinals. Here’s everything they said.”
“He came in as a quarterback, kind of like my understudy,” Dobbs noted of Jennings’ introduction to college football. “And now watching him make plays on Sundays at receiver and really growing into the role of, ‘I’m Jauan Jennings, a No. 1 receiver in the NFL,’ it’s been really cool.”

“Edge rusher Nick Bosa, fullback Kyle Juszczyk, tight end George Kittle and linebacker Fred Warner all were recipients of Pro Bowl honors for their performances throughout the 2024 season, while defensive lineman Leonard Floyd, cornerback Deommodore Lenoir, quarterback Brock Purdy and left tackle Trent Williams were selected as alternates.”
“Jake Moody, got to go. Jake Moody has to go at this point,” Sherman said. “I know fans are so sensitive because we’re in a day and age where everybody gets a participation trophy and no you don’t talk bad about anybody. But you got to do your job. At the end of the day, this team loses the game by six points, he missed two field goals and a PAT. You miss two field goals and a PAT, this is a business where you have to execute, especially at that position, and he hasn’t done it at a high enough tilt.
“I understand he was drafted and had all this acclaim. The Detroit Lions found their kicker in a brick shop. Doing a heck of a job, Jake Bates. No offense to him, no shots at him, but you can find a kicker literally anywhere. I think they’ve done the best they could to hold onto him and try to make it work and try to develop him, but it’s time to let it go.”
