The decision comes as the 49ers near the conclusion of their offseason program. OTAs are scheduled to wrap up on Thursday, allowing players to begin their summer break earlier than expected.
With mandatory minicamp no longer on the schedule, the 49ers will have no additional team activities after Thursday until training camp, which is set to begin at the end of July.
The move gives players extra time to recover, recharge, and prepare for the rigors of training camp, when the real work and roster competition ahead of the 2026 season begins.
