San Francisco 49ers rookie running back Cody Schrader has already made a strong impression on one of his elite teammates.
There were many contributors to the Missouri Tigers' best football season since 2014 last fall, but although running back Cody Schrader was among the smallest in stature, he may have made the biggest impact in a year that culminated with the No. 8 spot in the AP Poll after a Cotton Bowl victory over Ohio State.
When 49ers fullback Kyle Juszczyk was asked about the running backs room, which is headlined by reigning NFL Offensive Player of the Year Christian McCaffrey, during Tuesday's press conference, he said it is "the best he's ever been in from top to bottom" and singled out the 2023 Consensus All-American.. "He works his absolute tail off. He’s very intelligent. He just goes out there and plays a good consistent clean game and we’ve really enjoyed having him.
While Schrader has already made a strong impression on one of his highly regarded teammates, on July 17, Schrader was selected by the Saint Louis Battlehawks in the UFL College Draft. Since he was not exclusively drafted by an NFL team, he was eligible to be drafted into the UFL.
