The Alliance of American Football kicked off its inaugural season on Saturday

Womens Ahkello Witherspoon Jersey , and it wasn’t half bad. The quality is not NFL level, but there is some intriguing talent that will draw viewers in during the offseason.It should be no surprise that the Steve Spurrier-coached Orlando Apollos were the big winner on Saturday, beating the Atlanta Legends 40-6. The San Antonio Commanders won a slightly uglier matchup, beating the San Diego Fleet 15-6. Keith Reaser (Apollos) was the most notable ex-49ers player to see action, finishing with five tackles and coverage on two incomplete passes.Sunday brings the other half of the league in action, and we get a particularly familiar face. The Birmingham Iron host the Memphis Express at 1 p.m. PT, with the latter team coached by Mike Singletary. This is Singletary’s first coaching job since serving as a defensive assistant for the Los Angeles Rams. Singletary had served as 49ers interim head coach in 2008, and then formal head coach in 2009 and 2010.Singletary’s time as 49ers head coach did not go well Womens Solomon Thomas Jersey , but he has been pushing to get another opportunity. The AAF is promoted as a league of second and third chances for players, but it could help coaches raise their profile with NFL teams. If Singletary can put together a respectable showing in Memphis, maybe he gets another shot at least as an assistant.If you are looking to watch Singletary’s AAF debut, it will air on CBS Sports Network. The other game on Sunday features Arizona hosting Salt Lake at 5 p.m. PT on NFL Network. If you don’t have either cable channel, the AAF app live streams all the games. You can download the app on Android or iPhone.Did anybody watch one or both games on Saturday? Plan on watching today?And just because....Report: 49ers have made ‘exploratory call’ for Le’Veon Bell, but nothing more at this point The Pittsburgh Steelers are actively shopping running back Le’Veon Bell, according to NFL Network reporter Ian Rapoport, and another report suggests the San Francisco 49ers have at least modest interest.CBS Sports reporter Jason La Canfora is reporting the 49ers and New York Jets have both made exploratory calls Womens Dante Pettis Jersey , and the Philadelphia Eagles are also interested. La Canfora said, “nothing has advanced beyond a preliminary stage and San Francisco’s interest is likely mitigated by the season-ending injury to quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo.”The 49ers lost running back Jerick McKinnon to a torn ACL prior to the start of the regular season. Matt Breida has emerged as a big threat, while Alfred Morris has served as more of the grinder in the backfield. The duo has been successful to date, although both are dealing with knee injuries that have them listed as questionable for Week 4. Both are expected to play, but neither is operating at 100 percent.I suspect any time a great player is available, we’re going to hear the 49ers connected to them. They admitted to making calls about Josh Gordon and Khalil Mack, but nothing happened in either case. John Lynch and Kyle Shanahan have both said they will always be interested in great players when they come available. Whether deals actually happen is another thing entirely. We saw them deal for Jimmy Garoppolo, so they can happen Youth Richard Sherman Jersey , but it will be a case-by-case basis.The NFL trade deadline is a month away, which gives teams some time to figure out where they stand and if they want to add Bell. I don’t expect the 49ers to make a move, but if C.J. Beathard impresses and the team is at or above .500 as the deadline approaches, maybe they push a little harder. Of course, as long as Breida is doing what he’s been doing and is healthy, it doesn’t seem worth the addition given the contract that would follow in the offseason for Bell.But if the 49ers are scuffling along these next four weeks, it would seem to cut the likelihood of the 49ers pursuing Bell to near zero.
