“The fact that he can play nickel inside and play the way he does, and play and cover guys outside is the types of guys you want in the secondary and special type of corner,” Shanahan said.
Lenoir described the moment he found out the deal was done, as he was told by his agent. It had been a deal long in the making, with discussions held starting in the offseason.
Lenoir, who is one of... 22 children, was overcome with emotion at being able to support his family.

“Hargrave’s salary for next season jumps to $19.9 million with another $850,000 available in bonuses. That seems like a stiff price to pay when there are so many other high-priced players on the team who are making greater contributions.

“There were other bumps in Lenoir’s rookie year. He had soft coverage on then-Green Bay Packers wideout Davante Adams in Week 3 that year, for example, leading to a 17-yard catch that set up a game-winning Packers field goal as time expired.
“I remember after that — I was talking to him about it this morning — he lost his confidence a little bit,” Shanahan said. “Just was down about making a big mistake and really never got it back that year.”
That confidence, however, was back in force for the 2022 season. And by the midway point of the 2023 season, he’d established himself not only as a starter on the outside but also as the 49ers’ best option at nickel cornerback.”
