49ers, Texans joint practice roundup: Dante Pettis shines again, Joshua Garnett working with first-team unit

How many times have you heard this line before — San Francisco 49ers rookie wide receiver Dante Pettis was a standout during training camp practice.

The Niners wrapped up their second of two joint practices with the Houston Texans Thursday in advance of both teams’ second preseason game to be held this Saturday at NRG Stadium. Like Wednesday, the weather was both hot and humid. Thankfully, however, this didn’t lead to any flaring of tempers, as it did between 49ers cornerback Jimmie Ward and Texans wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins Wednesday.

Pettis, who took some impressive batting practice with the Houston Astros two days before, didn’t appear bothered by the heat either.
