49ers' latest "visit" is a clear attempt to gain intel on Falcons ahead of Sunday

The San Francisco 49ers are taking on the Atlanta Falcons on Sunday. While the Niners are clear favorites, they are not taking the opponent lightly, and they have even seemingly tried to get some intel on Atlanta ahead of the game.

San Francisco brought linebacker Bralen Trice, who was recently released by the Falcons, in for a visit , per Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports Bay Area . He was not officially signed by the Niners, but perhaps all they wanted was to pick his brain a little bit and see if he could give them any sort of information on Atlanta’s defense.

The 25-year-old played his college football at the University of Washington, where he acumulatefd a launrdy list of accolades, including All-American, Sugar Bowl Defensive MVP, and team defensive MVP.

Unfortunately, though, his college prowess hasn't amounted to much at the professional level. Trice was drafted by the Falcons back in the third round of the 2024 NFL Draft, but he didn’t appear in an NFL game until this season, recording just two combined tackles.
