Vernon Davis out of line

Here is a link to my Thursday column about the holdout of Vernon Davis. The full text runs below: SANTA CLARA — Let’s get the important stuff out of the way. Jim Harbaugh’s pants. He spoke to the media Wednesday at high noon at the edge of the practice field, [...]

Eric Reid and Vernon Davis active

Vernon Davis and Eric Reid are active for today's game against the Saints. This was just announced in the press box. Both suffered concussions last Sunday. Reid got knocked out, as in he lost consciousness. If Reid were a boxer in California, he would have to wait 90 days before [...]

Vernon Davis says a bad word

On Thursday, Vernon Davis said a bad word. I happen to love that he said it, and as curse words go, it has tremendous power and popularity. I now think more of Davis than I ever did before. Davis also spoke about going into the playoffs for the first time [...]

49ers extend Vernon Davis

The 49ers announced today they signed tight end Vernon Davis to a five-year contract extension that runs through 2015. Good for them. This means they have locked up Patrick Willis and Davis for many years. It shows the Niners recognize and value impact talent and do what's necessary to keep [...]

Vernon Davis vs. Michael Crabtree

Hello Cohn Zohn, this is Grant. I just read the great Matt Maiocco’s piece on the Michael Crabtree – Vernon Davis squabble. Here’s my impression: Mike Singletary has created a double standard on the team. When he started as a head coach, he made his splash kicking Davis off the [...]
