Niners Nation on De'Zhaun Stribling

Stribling returns from hamstring injury with strong QB praise for ball-tracking and speed.

Rookie wideout returned to practice after hamstring injury, though not at 100 percent. Mac Jones praised his ball-tracking ability and speed, noting he maintains velocity when the ball is in the air—a rare trait Jones compared to Mike Evans and Jordan Watkins. Jones said, 'He has like a second gear when the ball's in the air. Some guys are really fast, but when the ball goes up, and your eyes go up, you slow down. But he doesn't do that.' Jones also called him 'the Flying Hawaiian because he's so fast' and noted Stribling has both speed and strength, saying 'I think he'll be a really good player.'
