Overview

  • Brock Purdy returned to full practice Sunday after missing Friday’s session for personal reasons, resuming all reps with the No. 1 offense.
  • The team activated wide receiver Ricky Pearsall off the PUP list; he returned to individual drills, logging limited snaps in team exercises.
  • Christian McCaffrey sat out Sunday’s practice; he is following a plan that restricts him to individual work through the first padded session.
  • Jacob Cowing and Renardo Green remained sidelined by hamstring strains; Jauan Jennings exited Sunday with a calf concern; defensive lineman Tarron Jackson was stable after being carted off to Stanford Hospital.
  • The 49ers will don pads for the first time Monday; joint practices with the Las Vegas Raiders are scheduled in mid-August to test roster depth built by backups and rookies.
