From the article

The 49ers worked out a right-footed punter, but Shanahan said that was more for Cowing, the punt returner. 'Just the spin of the ball. Always seeing it turn one way. And then you get into a game, and it's turning the other way. It's similar with deep balls. When you catch from a left-handed quarterback and go to a right-handed quarterback. It's the same with punts. Catching punts is one of the hardest things in sports. You can't get enough work of it.'

Cowing available as punt returner; team working on adjustment to right-footed punter.

Jacob Cowing is available as a punt returner for the 49ers against the Cowboys. The team worked out a right-footed punter primarily to help Cowing adjust to the different spin and trajectory of punts from a right-footed punter, as he is accustomed to catching from left-footed punter Corliss Waitman.
