The Cowboys have a treasure on their hand, and he is named Trey Lance. The QB’s new addition to the team has become a major strength for the Cowboys ahead of their clash against the grand 49ers. As the 49ers remain one of the two teams sliding into week 5 with an untainted record, every single game becomes important for them. On the other hand, the Cowboys, 3-1, are not taking any chances.

The Cowboys have a golden opportunity at their hands of defeating the undefeated teams of this season. If they manage to do so, not only will it boost their own record but also they will gain a major reputation ahead of the playoffs. The team is planning to do so with the help of their quarterback.

As wished, or rather predicted by his former San Francisco teammate Trent Williams, Trey Lance is back as a QB. And it will be like witnessing an irony unfold as he scores against his former teammates. Whereas the officials of the Cowboys have kept it no secret that they will be using their ex-player against them. Cowboys OC Brian Schottenheimer hinted about using Lance’s knowledge of his former team members to give them a head start at Levi’s Stadium.

Trey Lance, the once third overall selected member of the San Francisco 49ers, suffered a ton of injuries leading to limited play. As a result, the officials decided to move on from him. However, the Cowboys having a good eye for talented young players picked him up in this season’s draft. And is now using them against them. While it may be a smart move from Mike McCarthy’s end, Kyle Shanahan seems a tad bit worried on the other end.

What does Kyle Shanahan think about Lance?

While the head coach of the 49ers tried to daily down the tension in the room with a joke, many caught onto his concern behind it. Shanahan said, or rather joked, “Hopefully, he’s [Lance] talking to them all the time and making them focus totally on that instead of the simple stuff of watching the tape.” However, the tension in the air could be cut with a knife.

Extending onto his topic, maintaining a light note, the Niners coach expressed that Lance can share a good amount of knowledge, ‘as much as coaches’ to the Cowboys. While the 49ers might have already come up with a solid game plan, given their outstanding performance this season, the Cowboys could still turn out to be their nemeses. Only time will tell which team will overpower in the field.
