The Facts: San Francisco GM John Lynch said Juszczyk should rightfully be called an "OW"—offensive weapon—now rather than a fullback.

Diehards Line: It’s likely Kyle Shanahan will use him on a special team or two, as a blocking back, as a wheel-route specialist out of the backfield, as a second tight end/H-back in some formations, and possibly split out very occasionally. Instead of carrying the ball seven times in four years, he might have 70 rushes and 70 catches in an average Niners season. “My role will be very diverse,” he said. “It will involve blocking and touching the ball, for sure. But one of things they emphasized was that what I do might not always be seen by the fans, but there are other ways you can contribute to winning, like pass-protection.” As MMQB.com’s Peter King put it, “Teams don’t pay pass-protecting backs $5 million a year. So the bull’s-eye will be on Shanahan to build a major role in the offense, and for Juszczyk to produce.”
