What happened during Day 3 of 49ers training camp on Friday?
The San Francisco 49ers concluded their third day of training camp on Friday, which had a much different feel to it than Thursday’s scrimmage-heavy day.
With a number of key players not practicing, the 49ers had a very short practice in what seemed more like a reset day ahead of their final practice of the non-padded portion of training camp, which is set to take place on Saturday.
If you missed it, here are my three quick takeaways from what I saw on Day 3 of training camp.

It was a major rest day for the 49ers as they had a short practice on Day 3 of camp.
The San Francisco 49ers wrapped up Day 3 of training camp on Friday, which had a much different tone to it than Thursday’s practice.
After an eventful day that involved a good amount of team drills on Thursday, the 49ers had a much lighter practice on Friday that wrapped up quickly, while a number of players did not participate.
Here are three quick takeaways from Day 3 of 49ers training camp.
One of the bigger takeaways...
We already knew Purdy was going to get paid, but Tua’s new deal confirms as much.
The Miami Dolphins gave quarterback Tua Tagovailoa a four-year, $212.4 million extension that comes with $167 million guaranteed. Based on guarantees, Tua is now eighth among all NFL contracts. By the end of the day, that might change if the Green Bay Packers pay their quarterback.
The more quarterbacks who get paid, the more Brock Purdy smiles. If the San Francisco 49ers and Purdy continue to excel and win at the rate they have, it’ll be difficult for the Niners to pay Purdy less...
Nick Sorensen spoke about what he’s seen in the former Carolina Panther
When Charles Omenihu left San Francisco for Kansas City before the 2023 season, the departure left a void in the 49ers’ defensive line rotation due to Omenihu’s flexibility to play inside and outside on the line. Omenihu was acquired for a sixth-round pick, and the move reaped many benefits for the 49ers and Omenihu himself, as he signed a lucrative two-year, $16 million contract with the Chiefs.
The 49ers are looking for lightning to strike twice as Yetur Gross-Matos signed a two-year deal this offseason. Once again, the...
Sorensen highlighted Mustapha’s communication skills and how much he cares.
Most rookies’ heads are spinning during the first week of training camp. They’re used to playbooks that are easy to digest and be able to waltz onto the field and rely on their athletic ability.
That doesn’t fly at this level. The 15-hour commitment that you had in college will have you riding the pine in the pros. For most, by the time you figure out the type of work ethic it takes to excel in the NFL, it’s too late.
That doesn’t appear to be an issue for [San...

49ers Day 2 Camp Notes: A glut of talent at corner, another Dobbs INT
“In short, you have seemingly four players in Ward, Yiadom, Lenoir and Green who are stone-cold roster locks. Luter Jr. seems exceedingly likely to make the team. That leaves maybe one spot between five corners when you include Kemon Hall, the only clear cut at that position. Defensive coordinator Nick Sorensen raved about the group.”

What happened during Day 2 of 49ers training camp on Thursday?
The San Francisco 49ers concluded their second day of training camp on Thursday, which was a scrimmage-heavy day where the offense and defense went back and forth making plays.
While left tackle Trent Williams and wide receiver Brandon Aiyuk didn’t practice, the 49ers had a majority of their roster on hand for their second practice, with nearly every star in uniform working.
If you missed it, here are my three quick takeaways from what I saw on Day 2 of training camp.

The 49ers had an eventful second day of training camp, as the stars shined on both sides.
The San Francisco 49ers wrapped up Day 2 of training camp on Thursday in what seemed to be a lighter day of practice.

WR Malik Turner was also signed to the active roster as a corresponding move
The San Francisco 49ers placed offensive tackle Trent Williams on the Reserve/Did Not Report List Thursday morning. The corresponding move to make room was to sign wide receiver Malik Turner, who spent time with the Niners in 2022.
Turner has been in the NFL for five years, where he played with the Seattle Seahawks in 2018-19, Dallas Cowboys from 2020-21, and the Niners. In 2023, Turner spent time with the Las Vegas Raiders and Houston Texans practice squads after he was in training camp with the...
What does the 49ers projected 53-man roster look like on defense ahead of training camp?
The San Francisco 49ers have begun training camp, with the first practice of the two-week period taking place on Wednesday, while padded practices are expected to begin next week.
During camp and the preseason, several players will be fighting for roster spots and their place on the depth chart, as the 49ers have accumulated a good amount of young depth to complement their star-studded talent, especially on the defensive side.
So, as training camp begins, let’s predict the 53-man roster for the first time this...
Second year linebacker Dee Winters has a chance to prove himself this year. He’s impressed head coach Kyle Shanahan and All-Pro Fred Warner
Following Day 1 of training camp practice, Kyle Shanahan spoke to the media, gave updates on Trent Williams and Brandon Aiyuk’s contract situations and injuries from day one, and praised second-year linebacker Dee Winters.
Once OTAs concluded, 49ers star linebacker Fred Warner had nothing but great things to say about Winters. Warner said Winters had the best OTAs of any player.
“I feel like he’s come a long way since last year,” Warner said. “I remember he...
