The San Francisco 49ers will “visit” the New Orleans Saints for a joint practice at the University of California, Irvine, ahead of their preseason game, which takes place three days after the joint practice.
The NFL released the preseason traveling schedule, and San Francisco is officially listed as the traveling team. The first session takes place on August 15.
Details about whether these practices will be open to the public remain unclear. We’ll also see if there is more than one joint practice. Generally speaking, the 49ers have had at least two with their opposition during Kyle Shanahan’s tenure.
