49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan was on KNBR Wednesday morning talking about the plan for the preseason and injury updates.
The big one is cornerback Charvarius Ward, who will miss a couple of weeks due to a muscle strain. So if I’m the 49ers, I’m shutting Ward down until Week 1, along with Emmanuel Moseley.
I know what I have in those two, let the first and second-year cornerbacks get much-needed reps during the preseason while the starters heal.
Shanahan said right tackle Mike McGlinchey will play “a little bit.” I’d expect to see the 49ers' offense get 15-20 plays, depending on the success of each drive.
