From the article

Jacob Cowing, a guy who adds a speed dimension that the 49ers did not have a season ago... Cowing plays faster than Pearsall... Cowing will likely run deep crossing routes or routes with vertical stems... That'll lead to big plays, splash plays

STACKED’s take

Positive signalBreakout

Cowing's elite speed and vertical route tree position him as 49ers' training camp breakout.

Rookie receiver projected as 49ers' biggest training camp standout; adds speed dimension the team lacked in 2025; plays faster than Ricky Pearsall despite Pearsall's superior testing metrics; will be deployed in slot and off-ball in advantageous matchups, running deep crossing routes and vertical-stem routes to generate splash plays against secondaries that don't run well.
