Roster Cuts Surprise Winners | California News

The 49ers’ roster cuts delivered surprises as several players who were on the bubble or seemingly headed out secured their spots through standout preseason performances.

Rookie Carver Willis locked down the starting right guard spot, proving his worth despite being a rookie. On defense, James Thompson Jr. fought his way onto the roster against stiffer competition, while Keion White, recovering from an injury scare, is now set to start with another player sidelined. And linebacker Tatum Bethune, once in danger of being cut, proved his value and earned his spot — showing that when it matters most, performance speaks louder than pedigree.
