Niners Nation on De'Von Achane

Achane expected to exceed 14 touches with expanded passing-game role.

Achane is expected to see increased usage in the passing game after being limited to 14 touches against the Raiders despite forcing three missed tackles. Slowik stated, 'We don't want to leave a game with De'Von Achane only having 14 touches,' signaling a deliberate uptick in touches. The 49ers' safeties (Greenlaw, Dugger) will be tasked with defending Achane in space, and more designed runs involving Willis off play-action will create additional opportunities for Achane to operate.
