Will see action Saturday Lance is set to finish off the first half of Saturday's preseason opener against the Chiefs after Jimmy Garoppolo takes the first series, Eric Branch of the San Francisco Chronicle...

Impact Lance remains firmly in the No. 2 spot in San Francisco's quarterback room, as Cam Inman of The San Jose Mercury News reports is mirrored by the team's first unofficial depth chart. With Jimmy Garoppolo on track to start Week 1 under center, the rookie No. 3 overall pick still has plenty of ground to make up. If Lance is able to show off his explosiveness and arm talent in the first preseason action of his career, it could help to close that gap.

Prepped for special role? Coach Kyle Shanahan said Lance will get playing time as a rookie, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports. "He's going to play for us this year," Shanahan said.

Impact Shanahan also has made multiple comments about Jimmy Garoppolo being the starter, so he's likely referring to a situational role for Lance, though there's obviously also a chance the rookie makes starts at some point. For the immediate future, Lance could give the Niners an advantage in short-yardage and/or red-zone situations, considering Garoppolo is one of the least mobile starting QBs in the league. Lance wasn't timed in a 40-yard dash during the predraft process, but he did run for 1,100 yard and 14 TDs in his one full season (2019) at North Dakota State.
