On Monday, the San Francisco 49ers held their first full practice following Friday night's 27-17 exhibition win over the Kansas City Chiefs. The team came away from the game a little banged up with the most significant injury being to DL DeForest Buckner, who is unlikely to practice this week or play in Saturday's home game against the Denver Broncos. Buckner aggravated a low-ankle sprain in Kansas City.

Others who did not practice on Monday are DL Ronald Blair (groin), WR Aaron Burbridge (hamstring), LB Jayson DiManche (hamstring), OL Joshua Garnett (knee), and LB Donavin Newsom (concussion). LB Brock Coyle (rib), CB Dontae Johnson (concussion), and TE George Kittle (hamstring) were limited.

S Jimmie Ward (hamstring) remains on the team's physically-unable-to-perform list. He has not yet taken part in training camp practices. S Chanceller James, who suffered a season-ending knee injury, was waived prior to practice.

Below are some quick notes from Monday's practice, which was the 49ers' 12th of training camp.

A pair of legendary 49ers were on hand for Monday's practice. Former wide receiver Jerry Rice and quarterback Steve Young were in attendance. They spoke to the team about the franchise's history and culture and then decide to stick around for practice. While Young played the part of a spectator, Rice caught some passes from 49ers quarterbacks and ran with the wide receivers during warmups.

There were no one-on-one drills during practice and players did not wear pads during the Monday session.

LB Aaron Lynch left practice after suffering what appeared to be a right ankle injury. He slowly walked off of the practice field and went to the locker room. Lynch had two sacks during Friday's win against the Chiefs.

DT Earl Mitchell also left practice due to an injury.

CB Dontae Johnson returned to practice in a blue no-contact jersey. He spent last week on the concussion protocol.

There were four consecutive touchdown passes between QB Brian Hoyer and QB Matt Barkley during red-zone drills. TE Garrett Celek, TE Blake Bell, WR Pierre Garçon, and WR Kendrick Bourne each came away with a touchdown reception on those passes.

Rookie CB Adrian Colbert had two interceptions during practice. He started training camp as a cornerback but has received some work at free safety due to injuries. S Lorenzo Jerome also came away with an interception, his third of training camp, against QB C.J. Beathard while playing at free safety. S Jaquiski Tartt played with the second-team defense.

Beathard had a touchdown pass to RB Raheem Mostert.

"Rookie receiver Victor Bolden made a diving catch 50 yards down the field on a Barkley throw against the coverage of cornerback Ahkello Witherspoon and Vinnie Sunseri," notes Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports Bay Area.

"Victor Bolden Jr. provided the offensive highlight of the day with a diving catch deep downfield on a throw from Matt Barkley," wrote Joe Fann of 49ers.com.

DE Elvis Dumervil and DE Arik Armstead each had a sack.

49ers Notebook: Crucial offseason for Purdy; O-line confidence; Shanahan on new kickoff rule, Dobbs signing; Hufanga eyes training camp return

By David Bonilla
Mar 26

San Francisco 49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan doesn't have to field as many quarterback questions as he did a year ago after Brock Purdy underwent surgery, the arrival of Sam Darnold, and the uncertainty surrounding the future of Trey Lance. The quarterback situation is clearer now than it has been in recent years. For Purdy, this offseason holds significant importance. It marks the first time he can focus on on-field improvement during minicamps, OTAs, and training camp. While he had this opportunity as a rookie in 2022, he was buried on the depth chart, limiting his practice reps. Last year, Purdy was still recovering from surgery to repair the torn ulnar collateral ligament (UCL) in his right elbow. He didn't get to throw to his teammates until training camp in

49ers assistant coach also suffered torn Achilles during Super Bowl

San Francisco 49ers linebacker Dre Greenlaw is currently rehabilitating after undergoing surgery for the torn Achilles he sustained last month during Super Bowl 58. He'll have a partner in his recovery, as he wasn't the only member of the team to suffer that specific injury. Head coach Kyle Shanahan spoke to reporters on Tuesday morning at the NFL owners meetings and revealed that defensive backs coach Daniel Bullocks also sustained a torn Achilles during the game. "[It occurred] about five minutes after Dre's," Shanahan told reporters. "I think it was when [S] Ji'Ayir [Brown] got the interception, he just jumped up and cheered, very similar to Dre's, and his Achilles went too." Bullocks remained on the sideline and continued coaching throughout the

49ers actively negotiating with Brandon Aiyuk, not discussing trades, says John Lynch

By David Bonilla
Mar 25

General manager John Lynch addressed reporters at the NFL owners meetings on Monday, emphasizing the San Francisco 49ers' active pursuit of a contract extension for wide receiver Brandon Aiyuk. There has been significant speculation surrounding Aiyuk's status this offseason. The receiver is slated to play on his fifth-year option, which guarantees him $14.124 million in 2024. While the team would be content with Aiyuk playing on that fifth-year option, it would prefer to secure the star receiver to a long-term deal before he returns to the field.
