The 49ers on Sunday threw a couple of wrinkles into their offensive front. Veteran OL Daniel Brunskill, who returned in Week 4 from a preseason hamstring injury, saw action at both guard spots during San Francisco’s Week 5 drubbing of the Panthers. The results made it clear that the best version of the 49ers’ OL involves Brunskill.
Against the Rams in Week 4 Brunskill played 21 snaps at right guard. He earned a 70.8 pass blocking grade from Pro Football Focus after allowing one pressure and one hurry in his first game action of the year. His run blocking grade was a much less desirable 45.5 via PFF.
