The San Francisco 49ers concluded their offseason program by ending their mandatory minicamp a day early last week. Wednesday was the final practice. The team held a family day on Thursday, hosting players, coaches, and staff for food and fun.

The 49ers moved up the minicamp by a week. They could have held the remainder of organized team activities (OTAs) this week but opted to cancel the remaining practices, allowing players an extended break before reconvening in late July for training camp. The rookies were already expected to remain in Santa Clara this week for some extra work.

They won't be the only ones, though. According to NBC Sports Bay Area, quarterback Trey Lance and some other second-year players will also remain in Santa Clara for an additional voluntary week of work before their break. Most veterans have already departed the area.

Lance started just two games last season, attempting only 71 passes during his rookie campaign. Despite veteran Jimmy Garoppolo remaining on the roster, Lance is slated to become the 49ers' Week 1 starter.

Lance spoke with reporters last week, assessing what he has gained from practices up to that point after spending time following the season working with several high-profile quarterbacks coaches in Southern California and Atlanta.

"Just reps, being able to be around the guys, being able to be in the locker room, around the coaches," Lance shared. "It was big to get Brock [Purdy] in the room, new quarterback coach, new assistant quarterback coach, just being around the guys again and being around football, and this situation is a lot different than training other places or throwing routes on air to other guys."
