The injury-ravaged 49ers and the New Orleans Saints have scrapped plans for joint practices later this week in Irvine.
San Francisco 49ers’ Elijah Mitchell is tackled by New Orelans Saints’ Zack Baun while running the ball in the first quarter of their NFL game at Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara, Calif., on Sunday, Nov. 27, 2022. SANTA CLARA — Coach Kyle Shanahan alluded Saturday night that the 49ers’ injury-strewn state could impact this week’s joint practices with the New Orleans Saints, and indeed an audible has been called.
After Saturday’s 17-13 preseason-opening loss to the host Tennessee Titans, Shanahan said of the scheduled joint practices: “It’s awesome to get a chance to scrimmage against people. We’re a little banged up so we have to figure out how to pull that out. More injuries and pains surely came Saturday night, although the only one announced by the 49ers was cornerback Ambry Thomas’ fractured right forearm.
Joint practices have been almost an annual staple of the 49ers’ preseason schedule since Shanahan came aboard in 2017. The 49ers hosted the Denver Broncos in 2017, then hit the road for joint practices at the Houston Texans , the Denver Broncos , the Los Angeles Chargers , the Minnesota Vikings , and the Las Vegas Raiders .Titans 17, 49ers 13: QBs Allen, Dobbs lead brigade of backups in opener
