SANTA CLARA, Calif. (AP) — For the past three seasons, the San Francisco 49ers’ defense has been all about potential. Now it’s about production and results.
The emerging unit that carried the team to an 8-8 record last season is trying to take it a step further this summer, and it appears the best is yet to come.
Linebacker Takeo Spikes says the defense doesn’t see any limits to what it can accomplish.
The excitement has shown throughout training camp and two preseason games.
