Spencer to Train for Wide Receiver
Only four teams remain in the hunt for Super Bowl XL, leaving 28 other teams and approximately 1,700 players to forge ahead into their offseason plans.
Cornerback Shawntae Spencer has something up his sleeve besides the 'voluntary' workouts coach Mike Nolan insists his 49ers attend. Spencer also will train as a wide receiver this offseason in Coral Springs, Fla.
He'll do so under the tutelage of Cris Carter, a former Minnesota Vikings receiver who has welcomed athletes from various sports to his "Fast Program" training center for nearly a decade.

'As a cornerback, you need to understand receivers' routes. It'll give me a better understanding how receivers line up and how they run routes,' Spencer said earlier this month. 'I'll do cutting drills and ball drills, too. My goal in the offseason is to improve my ball skills.'
