Eleven Days To The Cutdown And Jake Brendel Still Has No Settled Backup
San Francisco's roster is set on August 30 and the backup center job has been open on this board since August 8, when the club disclosed Brett Toth's concussion. Drake Nugent and Doug Kramer Jr. split every center snap of the preseason opener with Jake Brendel out of uniform, and neither is on Matt Maiocco's projected 53 or David Lombardi's. Wednesday's walk-through was closed to media, so nothing moved.
Nine Takeaways From The 49ers' 19-13 Loss To Tennessee, Starting With The Rookie Who Caught Seven Passes
The 49ers lost their preseason opener 19-13 to Tennessee on Thursday night. Second-round rookie De'Zhaun Stribling caught seven of his eight targets for 63 yards. Kurtis Rourke started at quarterback, completed 12 of 14 passes, and was taken to a hospital with a rib injury that stadium X-rays did not show as a break. Robert Jones started at left guard and Connor Colby started at right guard. Four running backs carried 23 times for 52 yards. Nine takeaways from a game that produced no touchdown passes on 44 attempts.
