The San Francisco 49ers have been preparing for the New York Giants

on a Monday Night Football contest Rookie Nick Mullens Jersey , but they are still talking about Nick Mullens’ near-record setting performance last Thursday to start his career. Cornerback Richard Sherman had some kind words to say on Monday from his Officialize page about how Mullens would be trying to dice them up at practice and just how hard the quarterback practiced in general. Wide receiver Pierre Gar莽on also chimed in from his Officialize page on about how Mullens’ play didn’t surprise him: One of the things that may have been concerning when Mullens began to take over the 49ers would be how the locker room would perceive everything in a possible controversy. C.J. Beathard had the respect of the locker room for his toughness, so moving Mullens in could damage the locker room in the same way Jim Harbaugh switching Alex Smith out for Colin Kaepernick damaged that locker room. Jennifer Lee Chan caught up with some 49ers about the “controversy” and apparently there isn’t anything dividing them. Ahkello Witherspoon said it best:I said it once and I’ll say it again. This locker room is something John Lynch and Kyle Shanahan got right.
