Greg Beacham, of the Associated Press, reports San Francisco 49ers head coach Mike Nolan was upset with a hit Arizona Cardinals DL Darnell Dockett put on 49ers QB Alex D. Smith during the Week 1 game. Dockett hit Smith well out of bounds during the game. Nolan has sent a tape of the hit to the NFL to be reviewed. Smith said, "Hits are an interesting thing: Sometimes it's the ones that don't look like anything that are the worst. That one probably looked a little worse than it actually was. I don't think he intended for it."

What to make of Jeff Darlington's report on 49ers QB Trey Lance's first-team reps
ESPN's Jeff Darlington recently appeared on the network's NFL Live show and discussed the San Francisco 49ers' quarterback situation, highlighting Trey Lance's healthy state and current workload during organized team activities (OTAs).
"Trey Lance is the guy during OTAs who's been taking all the 1st-team reps; he's healthy at this point," Darlington said, per Dov Kleiman of BroBible. "Sam Darnold really getting backup duty as he kinda gets his playbook under his belt. But for now, Trey Lance getting his opportunity with those first-team reps."

"It'll even out," Shanahan assured reporters. "We'll make sure to get that right."
The coach made a point to add, "And the first-team is kind of funny because there's no [offensive] line out there. Most of our receivers are second- and third-team on the first-team today, so I'm curious what everyone thinks first- and second- and third-team is."
