Stribling balled out again. The No. 33 choice in the 2026 NFL Draft caught four of his five targets for 46 yards — all in the first quarter — one game after leading San Francisco with 63 yards on seven receptions. All in the first half, by the way. De'Zhaun Stribling's preseason start is truly unbelievable. He's the first player in at least 20 years to total 11 catches within the first 20 minutes of two consecutive preseason games.

Positive signalBreakout

Stribling's preseason target volume and efficiency suggest early-season breakout potential.

49ers rookie De'Zhaun Stribling (No. 33 overall pick, 2026 NFL Draft) has impressed in preseason despite the absence of Christian McCaffrey, Mike Evans, Christian Kirk, George Kittle, and Deebo Samuel Sr. In his second consecutive preseason game, Stribling caught 4 of 5 targets for 46 yards, all in the first quarter; in his prior game, he led San Francisco with 63 yards on 7 receptions, all in the first half. He is the first player in at least 20 years to total 11 catches within the first 20 minutes of two consecutive preseason games, surpassing the previous record of 10 set by Dez Bryant (2013 Cowboys) and Demaryius Thomas (2014 Broncos).
