The San Francisco 49ers are in Houston this week in advance of their preseason bout with the Texans on Saturday, Aug. 18.
Joint practice sessions between teams has become commonplace in recent seasons, and the two squads are going through two training camp practices before Saturday’s contest. The first, which took place Wednesday, certainly was filled with entertaining instances.
The biggest, of course, was a brief fistfight between Niners defensive back Jimmie Ward and Texans wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins.
During a one-on-one drill between the two, Ward jammed Hopkins at the line of scrimmage.
