Pro Football Talk seems to think that the San Francisco 49ers could be one of the teams targeted by the city of Los Angeles for a possible move.

PFT also believes that the Buffalo Bills, Jacksonville Jaguars, Oakland Raiders, San Diego Chargers, Minnesota Vikings, New Orleans Saints, St. Louis Rams, and maybe even the Detroit Lions could be targets as well.

Kyle Shanahan feels "really fortunate" with 49ers' QB room
Kyle Shanahan praises his quarterback room every year. Last season, the San Francisco 49ers went through three starting quarterbacks and still made it to the NFC Championship Game. Trey Lance was the Week 1 starter but suffered a season-ending ankle injury during his second game. Eleven weeks later, Jimmy Garoppolo sustained a broken foot.
That opened the door for rookie Brock Purdy to show his coaches and the NFL world that he belonged, despite being the last overall pick in the draft. Purdy guided the 49ers to eight consecutive wins before suffering a severe injury in that NFC title game matchup against the Philadelphia Eagles.
