The 49ers had a light practice in their first action since Friday’s preseason opener. Despite a padless day they had eight players sitting out the session according to ESPN’s Nick Wagoner.
This is the point of the preseason where injuries start cropping up. Pushing players back into action at this point could jeopardize their Week 1 status, so San Francisco will likely keep some players out longer than usual to ensure they’re fully healthy.
Among the players who did suit up for the 49ers on Sunday were defensive linemen Drake Jackson and Hassan Ridgeway. Jackson left Friday’s game vs. the Packers with a shoulder injury that turned out to just be a stinger. Ridgeway strained his quad the first week of camp and made his first appearance in practice since the injury.
