49ers | Have praise for Darren Sproles

Fri, 13 Jan 2012 06:07:57 -0800

The San Francisco 49ers defense understands stopping New Orleans Saints RB Darren Sproles will be key in their Divisional Round playoff matchup. "There's no doubt that he's a unique running back," LB Patrick Willis said. "For a guy his size, he does it all. He runs in between the tackles, outside, catches the ball really well. He's a complete running back. Certainly, we're going to have to know where he is at all times." Defensive coordinator Vic Fangio added, "I can't believe they got him for the cheap price that they got him for replacing Reggie Bush. I think if it was the NBA, the commissioner might have stepped in and stopped that move."
