I always liked Bishop. For most of 2010 and 2011 he was the scariest Packers defender to face IMO. He rarely got enough credit for them IMO. He suffered 2 season ending injuries in his career and was never the same - torn ACL after he left for the Vikings and before that he suffered a torn hamstring that cost him an entire season with the Packers).

Ahhh, Bishop. Liked him since he was a Golden Bear. Good to hear he's still around.

He was a baller. Was always light years better than that scrub AJ Hawk.

From the 49ers twitter:

Fangio said "it would be a stretch right now" for rookie LB Chris Borland (ankle) to play again this season.
