The San Francisco 49ers on Monday had tryouts with three wide receivers, but the most notable name was the quarterback who threw the passes.

There have been multiple moments captured on TV broadcasts this preseason that show Chargers coach Jim Harbaugh with Lance on the sideline, uplifting him after key moments. It's that type of belief in a player that can truly help turn around a career that was in a bit of a messy spot.

"If the 49ers want to lighten Christian McCaffrey's workload, they must add a durable running back to the rotation," Moton wrote. "Robinson can grind out yards between the tackles, which would allow McCaffrey to stay fresh for the length of the regular season."

The San Francisco 49ers could cut ties with wide receiver Brandon Aiyuk depending on his performance following his return during the 2025 season.

The second preseason game versus the Las Vegas Raiders was more entertaining for the San Francisco 49ers than the first. Part of that is because the starters got a bit of action, but it's also because the 49ers had some players stand out.

The 49ers kicker was on his way to being a shaky summer storyline until two kicks in the final minute bought him some breathing room.

For the 49ers their health has become a greater concern than their preseason performance. They just need to make sure they have enough healthy bodies to keep their key starters out of harm's way. More than 20 players missed their preseason opener vs. the Denver Broncos with injuries, and that number could rise Saturday when they face the Raiders.
