Second-year safety Talanoa Hufanga’s film study has keyed his hot start heading into the 49ers’ game Sunday at Denver, where tight end George Kittle could make his season debut.
SANTA CLARA — Safety Talanoa Hufanga’s early-season impact on the 49ers’ defense is obvious.
“He doesn’t hesitate because of his preparation throughout the week. That’s what allows him to light up on game day,” Ryans added. “That’s the culmination of all the prep he’s done in the background when no one’s watching.” Those study habits began in middle school with his father, Tevita. “Mind you, my dad never played football at all, but he was a rugby player, and one of the greatest coaches I’ve ever been around,” Hufanga said. “He really just taught me continuously to be detailed and watch film.”
He left USC as the Pac-12 Defensive Player of the Year, yet he didn’t get drafted until the No. 180 spot overall, in the 2021 draft’s fifth round.
