Kyle Shanahan reveals potential plan for 49ers' starters in preseason game vs. Saints
The San Francisco 49ers' 17-13 loss to the Tennessee Titans to open the 2024 edition of the NFL preseason featured players like Joshua Dobbs, Jordan Mason, Cody Schrader. Tay Martin, Dee Winters and Tatum Bethune. Most of San Francisco's core starters watched from the sideline. The 49ers' second preseason contest could look different with starters on the field.
In an interview on San Francisco's KNBR with Tom Tolbert and Adam Copeland, Kyle Shanahan revealed a potential plan for the 49ers' starters for Sunday's preseason game against the New Orleans Saints. Shanahan said he would like to play the starters for "maybe a series or two." Shanahan notes that the 49ers normally play the starters more in the third game.

"I'd like to get the starters in the game just a little bit. Maybe a series or two. Usually we play them more in the third game."
