49ers Coach Calls Garrett 'All-Time Great'

49ers offensive line coach Chris Foerster calls Browns-to-Rams defensive end Myles Garrett an 'all-time great' pass rusher, saying he's 'an unbelievable talent' that they must prepare for.

49ers offensive line coach Chris Foerster was surprised by Myles Garrett's trade from the Browns to the Rams, prompting him to immediately study film of the reigning Defensive Player of the Year. "I just wanted to remind myself because it kind of came out of left field," Foerster said Tuesday.

Garrett, who Foerster calls "an all-time great pass rusher," will face the 49ers in Week 1 when they play the Rams in Melbourne, Australia. The 49ers were preparing for Jared Verse but now must contend with Garrett, who had success against them last season with a sack and three quarterback hits in one game. rocore.sbs
