49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan plans to play Brock Purdy and several other starters in a Sunday preseason matchup against the New Orleans Saints.
After canceling joint practices this week because of a litany of injuries, San Francisco 49ers coach Kyle Shanahan plans to play several of his starters, including quarterback Brock Purdy, in an exhibition game against the New Orleans Saints . Shanahan normally gives his starters plenty of work in joint practices and sometimes holds them out of the game that week, but said he will play many of his top players on Sunday to give them a chance to work against a different team.
Talanoa Hufanga has been cleared for the next step in his rehab from a torn ACL last year and will be able to do individual drills next week. If that goes well, Shanahan said he could start practicing the following week. Reporting by The Associated Press.
