From the episode

I looked at who's winning in short area throws against zone because that's really the only way you can complete passes against the Seahawks. And it's Debo and it's Kittle.

STACKED’s take

Positive signalMatchup

Debo's short-area strength makes him a flex play vs. Seattle's zone defense.

Against Seattle's zone defense, Debo is one of only two 49ers receivers winning in short area throws; the source recommends starting him as a flex rather than a number two receiver if Mike Evans plays, as the 49ers will struggle winning downfield and must rely on short, sweet passes to Debo, Kittle, and McCaffrey.
