Training Camp: Day One Recaps

It's safe to say the San Francisco 49ers' decision to trade for running back Christian McCaffrey in 2022 has worked out about as well as it possibly could have to this point.

Defensive tackle Javon Hargrave beamed about his young quarterback, calling Purdy's performance a one-of-a-kind game. "I think it's really unseen for

Head coach Kyle Shanahan didn't have much to report regarding injuries after the San Francisco 49ers' win over the Arizona Cardinals on Sunday. He only mentioned offensive lineman Jon Feliciano, who exited with a concussion. However, he noted that there may be more updates on Monday, the day after the game.
