For as much as we're in a time when teams often publicly support their quarterback before trading him a few days later, let's say the 49ers actually want
Jimmy Garoppolo
as their starter and subsequently love the idea of a redshirt season for
Trey Lance

The Bengals could go either way -- Sewell or
