Whistle Sports has posted an interesting video on YouTube featuring San Francisco 49ers WR Torrey Smith. The video draws out Smith's life from childhood to the NFL with the big moments in his life drawn out.
"You can't control where you come from or your family situation, but you can control your future by making smart decisions and further your education," Smith says in the video. "That's something that I live by and I wouldn't be here and you wouldn't be looking at me draw my life if I didn't follow these truths."
Week 13 will see the NFL relax their uniform rules for one weekend to allow players to wear custom cleats that reflect their commitment to charitable causes. Smith's will be representing the Torrey Smith Family Fund, which aims to provide youth with the tools they need to identify, unleash, and reach their full potential.

Rapoport: Sam Darnold will 'more likely than not' be 49ers' Week 1 starting QB

Ah, San Francisco 49ers offseason quarterback drama. We haven't had that since … well, last offseason. If there is one thing you can count on with the Bay Area team on a yearly basis, it's quarterback drama.
General manager John Lynch and head coach Kyle Shanahan made one thing clear over the last two days: If he were healthy, Brock Purdy would be the frontrunner to start Week 1 of the 2023 season. However, he is recovering from his March 10 surgery to repair the ulnar collateral ligament (UCL) tear in his right elbow. That will keep him off the practice field until maybe early September.
That timeline could extend beyond September. It's just too early for
49ers considered trading Mike McGlinchey last year

Mike McGlinchey received a life-changing payday, signing a five-year, $87.5 million deal with the Denver Broncos. The offensive tackle has known for a while that he would not return to the San Francisco 49ers, the only NFL team he has played for and the one that made him the No. 9 overall pick in 2018.
General manager John Lynch and head coach Kyle Shanahan made it clear to McGlinchey that he was likely playing his final months for the team. There was too much money invested in other spots, and the 49ers knew they couldn't compete with other interested teams.

Brock Purdy can begin throwing again sometime in June. The San Francisco 49ers quarterback is expected to be ready to hit the field—practice or in-game—sometime in September.
Purdy is recovering from surgery to repair the tear of the ulnar collateral ligament (UCL) in his right elbow, an injury sustained in the NFC Championship Game against the Philadelphia Eagles. He hasn't been seen since the surgery, with his last public appearance taking place In Arizona, during the week leading to the Super Bowl.
One fan spotted Purdy, though, getting a photo with the 49ers quarterback (h/t TheSFNiners). As expected, Purdy is wearing a massive brace on his throwing arm,
