After watching Nick Mullens’ turnovers cost the San Francisco 49ers a game despite a strong defensive effort, coach Kyle Shanahan said it might be time for a change at quarterback.
Shanahan said he would consider benching Mullens for C.J. Beathard after two giveaways led to defensive touchdowns for Washington in the Niners 23-15 loss on Sunday.

Nick Mullens and the San Francisco 49ers’ offense just about gave away any chance for the defending NFC champions to remain in the playoff race.
Mullens committed two turnovers that Washington turned into defensive touchdowns and the 49ers lost their second straight game at their temporary home in Arizona, 23-15 on Sunday.
“We were not clean today offensively,” coach Kyle Shanahan said. “Regardless, we would have found a way to win if we didn’t turn the ball over. It was a number of things today from an execution standpoint. . You can’t expect to win many games when you play like that.”
