JARRYD Hayne has been given a confidence boost on the eve of his first-ever 49ers game, earning a remarkable rating for a big play in training camp.

San Francisco media staff have rated Hayne’s aggressive touchdown, in which he bumped off several tacklers to find the endzone, as the No.4 play of 49ers camp - and the top play by a running back.

The play outdid a long run by fellow running back Reggie Bush (No.10) and should give the Australian confidence heading into his debut game, a pre-season clash against Houston on Sunday (AEST) in which he is tipped to get an opportunity in multiple roles.

KEY DATES IN JARRYD HAYNE’S NFL FUTURE

“Jarryd Hayne got denied by Tank Carradine a couple plays ago but he made amends a couple plays later with a nice touchdown, bouncing off a couple of would-be tacklers,” was how 49ers commentators described the Hayne training TD. “Aussie Aussie Aussie, Oi Oi Oi, as they say.”

Hayne also featured in the No.6 play of camp, when he was smashed in a heavy tackle by Carradine just short of the endzone. Taking the hit with no fuss earned Hayne plenty of respect from observers.

The No.1 play of camp went to quarterback Colin Kaepernick, for a nice touchdown pass to tight end Vernon Davis.
