Due to not having joint practices, Kyle Shanahan says the San Francisco 49ers will join the New Orleans Saints in playing their starters in Sunday’s preseason game. There is one major difference: The 49ers won’t play all of their starters, while the Saints will play any starter healthy enough to play. Shanahan specified that not all of his starters will get on the field as they monitor players’ reps this summer though he plans for those who do dress out to play a series or two.

SANTA CLARA, Calif. — An already depleted New Orleans Saints secondary suffered another loss early in their preseason game against the San Francisco 49ers. Rookie cornerback Kool-Aid McKinstry, the team's 2024 second-round pick, suffered a knee injury on the game's opening drive when he collided with 49ers receiver Trent Taylor on an incomplete pass. After the game, coach Dennis Allen said it appears McKinstry dodged a serious injury.
