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.

"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.

Amid injuries and a massive crop of young players, the Niners are in a state of chaos with roster cuts looming.

San Francisco 49ers cornerback Chase Lucas has consistently made plays in training camp and preseason. He explained why after the win over Las Vegas.

The San Francisco 49ers are desperate for wide receiver help, so it should be no surprise that they called the Houston Texans about a wideout.

As Spencer Burford transitions to Trent Williams’ backup at left tackle, the 49ers might need his versatility to compensate for injuries at guard.

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.
