The San Francisco 49ers held a walk-through on Saturday morning at the University of Miami and then followed that up with a visit to Hard Rock Stadium for the first and only time before returning on Sunday for Super Bowl LIV.
Just finished our final walk thru in preparation for #SBLIV and on behalf of everyone at the @49ers, we thank @CanesFootball for being tremendous hosts this week. See you soon #Faithful #GoNiners

The 49ers didn't waste the opportunity at the stadium and used the time to figure out the plan during the irregularly long halftime the team will have to endure.
According to pool reporter Jenny Vrentas, head coach Kyle Shanahan informed his players that they need to hydrate and stretch during the first 15 minutes following the first half and then the team will return to its normal halftime routine.
"It's going to feel like forever," Shanahan said. "We're not used to that."

"It's going to feel like forever," Shanahan said. "We're not used to that."
The much-hyped Pepsi Super Bowl LIV Halftime Show will feature Jennifer Lopez and Shakira.
The 49ers kick off Super Bowl LIV against the Kansas City Chiefs on Sunday at 3:30 p.m. PT (6:30 p.m. ET).
"We're as ready as we can be," Shanahan told Vrentas on Saturday. "We just need the game to get here. It's been two weeks of (practice), and we are itching to go."
