Next time the San Francisco 49ers take the field, it will be for real, and the team will be hitting the Tampa Bay Buccaneers with everything they have.
But in the Niners’ final preseason game, most of the probable starters were rested, giving one final chance for the team’s fringe players to make a case for the final roster.
Sadly, despite the fact the game didn’t count, the 49ers couldn’t finish the preseason undefeated after suffering a 27-24 loss to the Los Angeles Chargers in their last preseason game.
Some players got some positive momentum heading into the final cuts, while some didn’t make a good last impression.
