Robert Saleh emphasized that both safety spots were up for grabs. Jason Pinnock and Ji’Ayir Brown started to begin camp. Rookie Marques Sigle (speed, physicality) and Richie Grant are also names to keep an eye on. It’s all up in the air while Malik Mustapaha works his way back.
Veteran cornerback Eli Apple is signing a one-year deal with the 49ers, per Kevin Conner at @UniSportsMgmt.
Notes and observations from #49ers practice No. 4: - The final non-padded session for the Niners was around 80 minutes with about a seven minute stoppage in the middle to tend to injured DE Tarron Jackson. Jackson was on the ground for about 6 minutes being tended to by…
Was definitely a group effort today. There were PBUs from Jakob Robinson, Dallis Flowers, Derrick Canteen, and then the pick 6 by Siran Neal.

WR Ricky Pearsall has been activated off PUP list and is practicing at 49ers training camp.
Hearing that Brock Purdy is back at 49ers camp and will practice today. He was excused from Friday’s work for personal reason, the team said. It was anticipated then that he would miss only the one practice.

After arguably his best practice with several past break ups #49ers CB Renardo Green came off the field a little gimpy. He took his helmet off, walked off the field and did not practice the rest of the session. It looked like he was trying to stretch out his hamstring.
#49ers CB Renardo Green had a strong practice (3 PBUs) before he was forced to exit late in the session with an apparent hamstring injury.

This might be the first time I’ve personally seen this drill from coach Kris Kocurek. The defensive lineman begin already engaged, working on pad level, drive and shedding. Love it. #49ers
I don't know if I'd be able to hold up against these big boys!
Brock Purdy is not practicing today due to a personal matter — I’m told it’s nothing to be alarmed about.

Notes and observations from #49ers practice No. 2: - No pads, per league rules and picture perfect weather for a session lasting roughly 90 minutes. - With WR Jacob Cowing (hamstring) not participating Thursday, the Niners signed another veteran WR in Quintez Cephus. They…
Forgot to send out my best shot of the new practice fields — permanent goal post and full end zone is where the old, mostly unused artificial-turf portion used to be.
All 6’5” 332 pounds of #49ers 2nd rounder Alfred Collins being properly motivated to crush the imaginary QB by DL coach Kris Kocurek at camp today…
Isaiah Neyor is 6-4, 220 pounds and runs a 4.4 40. His measurables are off the charts. He's rough around the edges, but this type of play makes it obvious why the 49ers should, at the very least, develop him on the practice squad. He's got a chance at the active roster.
Neyoooor in the aiiiiir ✈️

“It sucks trying to base block guys with arms longer than your legs.” Mykel Williams’ arm length, wingspan, hand size and height are all 80th percentile plus. Big reason he was a dominant run defender at Georgia. If he gets better at using those tools to rush the passer, oh boy.
Trent Williams says “it sucks” going against rookie Mykel Williams in practice. #49ers
