The San Francisco 49ers got Kendrick Bourne smiling again. Bourne re-arrived four days before facing the New Orleans Saints. The wide receiver later saw Mac Jones bring the “swag” Sunday — getting Bourne vibing hard after the game.
Bourne first told 49ers insider how excited he was to see the team’s boombox again. Admitting “I missed that energy, man.”
But he also saw the Sunday starting quarterback lead the team out in front with the boombox.
“Mac got that swag. He knows what he’s doing,” Bourne said. “He knows how to connect with us.

Jones faced the task of leading the offense without Brock Purdy. He finds a way to lift the Niners to 2-0 and win over the newly re-added wide receiver. Who delivered his own epic moments in the game.
A jubilant Jones grabbed the cell and shouted out the 49ers Faithful. The former first rounder turned journeyman showed poise and efficiency with Purdy not inside the huddle.
Jones finished with 279 passing yards and tossed three touchdowns. Including hitting Jauan Jennings on this 42-yard strike.
