49ers have the NFL's most 2026 salary-cap space by an even wider margin after opening up about $2.3 million in the Jake Brendel restructure.1. 49ers: $72 million2. Titans: $54 million3. Commanders: $44 million4. Chargers: $43 million5. Patriots $36 millionSF will need huge carryover for 2027, where they're currently $35m over OTC's projected cap. 49ers continue surfing the wave of the rising salary cap to capitalize on that inflation and maximize in-season acquisition flexibility

Also not out of the question that the 49ers experiment with Carver Willis at center. He has no interior experience so there is a blank slate there. But his size suggests the interior is his home and Jake Brendel, 34, is only under contract one more year

Some notes and observations from the #49ers second open OTA today:- Once again, the majority of the team's stars were not participating, though many of them were watching from the sidelines. That included RB Christian McCaffrey, OT Trent Williams, TE George Kittle, LBs Fred Warner, Dre Greenlaw and Tatum Bethune, DT Alfred Collins and DL Keion White. - Among the players who were working on the side: Williams, Kittle, WR Christian Kirk, RB Isaac Guerendo, LB Luke Gifford, DT Evan Anderson, OL Brett Toth, WR Junior Bergen. - Players I did not see participating or doing side work: WR Ricky Pearsall, DE Sam Okuayinonu, QB Mac Jones. Also not sure on TE Khalil Dinkins, who may have been working on the side but was too far away to confirm it was him.- Jones is dealing with right shoulder soreness but said it's clean and isn't concerned about any long-term issues. Precautionary more than anything. - Insert the usual caveat here that there are no pads and there are no sweeping judgments to be made off of this but a few of the highlights to follow: - Was a day for big plays as the Niners appeared to be working on the deep passing game and testing the secondary as much as possible. QB Brock Purdy connected deep with Demarcus Robinson twice for would be big gains/TDs in 11 on 11. He also found WR Mike Evans on some intermediate routes and hit WR Jacob Cowing for a deep TD over the middle. Adrian Martinez followed by hitting Cowing on another deep one. Martinez found De'Zhaun Stribling for a long touchdown as well with Stribling getting open for a pair of deep balls. - On the flip side, the defense came up with a couple of interceptions. Two came against Purdy who threw it directly to S Malik Mustapha and the other for Darrell Luter Jr. on a pass that was tipped by LB Garret Wallow with Luter coming up with it. The pass was intended for Evans. Kurtis Rourke also threw one that Siran Neal grabbed on a wobbler intended for Colton Dowell. - All in all, it was an especially good day for Robinson, Cowing, Evans and Stribling. Cowing continues to make a statement that he shouldn't be forgotten in the mix, though of course the key for him will be staying on the field to build off a strong offseason program. - Harder to judge running backs without pads but it's hard not to notice the juice that Kaelon Black brings to the RB group. He's decisive and quick and when he sees something he likes, he isn't afraid to accelerate and go. He also made a nice catch on a pass thrown high and behind him today that he had to tip to himself and bring down. Jordan James and Black gonna have a good battle for the No. 2 RB job. - Evans is everything the Niners have wanted/needed at the position in terms of how he handles his business. Kittle made mention today of how this is the first true veteran WR the team has had since Emmanuel Sanders in 2019. Not a knock against others but more in terms of pros who just have that veteran savvy and set the tone for everyone else. Kittle said Evans had three to five TDs in red zone work this week. - That's it from here until training camp. Kyle Shanahan canceling the whole minicamp is sort of new (he's canceled the final day often) but multiple potential reasons for it. The official one is that it's a reward for good attendance but also have to think it was in an effort to get out of this offseason healthy and it probably didn't hurt that Levi's is a bit chaotic right now because of the World Cup coming to town. Will have some more stories and such coming up soon but we'll be back full speed in July with daily training camp breakdowns and more. Thanks for reading.

Very fun 49ers practice. Brock Purdy threw multiple touchdown bombs Jacob Cowing and Demarcus Robinson caught two over the top. Purdy also found De'Zhaun Stribling on a deep corner before Stribling caught a TD bomb from Adrian Martinez. Mike Evans also very involved.Defensive highlights: Malik Mustapha picked off Purdy. Then Nick Martin made an acrobatic tip that redirected a Purdy pass into Darrell Luter Jr.'s hands for an INT

Some notes and observations from the #49ers first open OTA today: - The majority of the team's stars did not participate, either for injury or personal reasons. These are, as always, voluntary. OT Trent Williams is the only player who has not been around, though Kyle Shanahan says he will be here next week. WR Mike Evans also did not participate today as he handles some business in Texas, according to Shanahan. - The list of players I did not see practicing (some obvious because of injury, others resting): Williams, Evans, RB Christian McCaffrey, TE George Kittle, DE Nick Bosa, DE Mykel Williams, WR Demarcus Robinson, RB Isaac Guerendo, RB Patrick Taylor Jr., S Darrick Forrest (now on IR), LB Tatum Bethune, LB Luke Gifford, LB Fred Warner, LB Dre Greenlaw, TE Khalil Dinkins, DL Keion White, DT Evan Anderson, OL Brett Toth, WR Junior Bergen, DT Alfred Collins. - Among those spotted working on the side: Guerendo, Bethune, Toth, Bergen, Collins. Warner and Greenlaw appear to be fine but didn't do much aside from observing practice. - Guerendo has a torn pectoral and will be out until around the end of training camp, per Shanahan. - QB Mac Jones has a sore shoulder, according to Shanahan. He did not do any throwing, leaving that to Brock Purdy, Kurtis Rourke and Adrian Martinez today. - The Niners plan to hold joint practices with the Titans and Chargers this preseason. The Titans are coming to the Bay for a preseason game while the Niners will go to LA for that preseason contest, which means that's the likely spot for both of those sessions. - It seems there is no punter competition for the Niners, at least not right now. They announced a few weeks back that they agreed to terms with P Jack Bouwmeester. But Bouwmeester isn't listed on the roster and was nowhere to be found today. Corliss Waitman handled the punting duties. - A few of the guys getting a shot at returning punts: Jacob Cowing, Ricky Pearsall, Christian Kirk, Will Pauling. - The left guard competition figures to be a hotly contested one this offseason with the likes of Connor Colby and Robert Jones in the mix. Colton McKivitz mentioned Colby first today when asked about it but obviously a long way to go there and no pads on right now. - A few highlights from practice (again, no pads, no sweeping conclusions to make): CB Deommodore Lenoir had a nice pass breakup on a throw for Kirk, Kirk and Purdy bounced back quickly with a connection on a deep in and they hit another big gainer later. Martinez found Jordan Watkins on a deep ball and then hit De'Zhaun Stribling on a crosser in traffic. Cowing provided some big plays, including a deep ball from Rourke while Pearsall and Purdy connected a couple of times for would-be big gains. - There was a lot of excitement in the Niners building about Cowing last offseason before injuries. The reasons for that could be seen in flashes today but, as always, the key for him will be staying on the field and continuing to produce. A solid start. - With no Guerendo and no McCaffrey, there was plenty of work for Jordan James and Kaelon Black. Both looked to be comfortable in the run and pass game and the Niners QBs had no problem getting them the ball through the air. Black looks decisive but again, not a great position to judge without pads. - The Niners will have another round of OTAs next week (with one more open session) before their mandatory minicamp on June 9-10.

De'Zhaun Stribling has great hands. Only one drop last season (55 catches), with most of his college drops coming way back during his sophomore season.Saw some of that high-floor asset this spring. The other run blocking won't have its chance to shine until camp

This was shortly before Ricky Pearsall suffered his PCL tear. He was a top-7 WR in yards per route run up to that point. That's a big deal

Bare minimum was for the 49ers to end that half with the ball so that Philly wouldn't get a lapping opportunity. Purdy made some great third-down throws to ensure that. FG would've been a cherry on top but the SF operation simply wasn't smooth enough.Understandable given that they're down to Malik Turner at WR

With Ricky Pearsall listed as questionable for Sunday's game in Philadelphia, the 49ers activated WR Malik Turner.

Why did the 49ers promote Trevis Gipson to the 53 before the ATL game only to move him back down to the practice squad later? Because teams get a max of 2 practice squad elevations per week and SF needed to use those on Malik Turner and Nick Zakelj. But they also wanted Gipson to play, so they promoted him. That didn't count as one of Gipson's 3 max practice squad elevations. He still has one remaining — 49ers will likely use it this week barring another move (click again to close) | WR | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
