The spot is well deserved as Hayne has been the most electric player this preseason. If you haven’t seen him play, we’ve compiled some of his best plays during the preseason.
Let’s start with Hayne first big play, a 53-yard run in his NFL debut
Here’s Hayne laying the boom.

And then we have Hayne’s two nice punt returns that may have been the deciding factor for the 49’ers to keep Hayne on the roster.
