The San Francisco 49ers worked out punter Matt Haack on Thursday, raising some eyebrows considering the team already boasts a healthy Mitch Wishnowsky. Why the workout? It's because Haack is left-footed.
The 49ers are preparing to face the Browns in Cleveland this weekend, whose punter, Corey Bojorquez, also kicks with his left foot.
"The team brought in Haack in order to give Ray-Ray McCloud some valuable practice time fielding punts from a lefty," noted Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports Bay Area.
The 49ers currently stand as one of only two undefeated teams in the NFL, sharing this distinction with the Philadelphia Eagles. The team has won an impressive franchise-tying 15 consecutive regular-season games and looks to set a new record in Cleveland on Sunday.
