He's one of the few players who plays as fast as his 40 time. He can legitimately run by any defensive back, and that's something the 49ers took advantage of the second he returned to practice last Saturday and Sunday.

Cowing's elite speed and return from hip injury make him critical to 49ers' Z receiver role.

Cowing looked great during OTAs and has elite speed that allows him to legitimately run by any defensive back; the 49ers took advantage of this immediately upon his return to practice last Saturday and Sunday after a multi-week hip injury absence. With Ricky Pearsall sidelined, Cowing's dynamic ability at Z receiver is critical to the 49ers' offensive scheme, as his speed changes how defenses would align compared to Deebo Samuel or Demarcus Robinson. These next two weeks are huge for Cowing to prove his body can hold up and secure a roster spot.
