| 0:00.0 | Good morning and welcome to 49ers in 5, your daily update on everything happening with the team that you need to know. |
| 0:13.8 | I'm Rob Stats Guerrera. Today is Thursday, October 2nd, 2025. Here's what's happening with your San Francisco 49ers. If the Niners are going to |
| 0:22.9 | beat the Rams tonight, they are going to have to pull off one of the best coaching jobs in the |
| 0:27.7 | Kyle Shanahan era. Injury news came out yesterday and it is not good. Brock Purdy, Ricky Pearsall, |
| 0:35.6 | Joanne Jennings, Jordan Watkins, and Robert Beale are all out tonight for the game. |
| 0:41.4 | C.J. West has two screws in his thumb, but somehow he's questionable. But on the plus side, |
| 0:46.5 | Mikel Williams, D. Winners, Mack Jones, Renardo Green, Yitor Gross Matos, and Colton McIIvitz were all full participants in practice. |
| 0:56.5 | So we know it's going to come down to you, Mack Jones. |
| 0:59.2 | You are leading this quote unquote offense on a short week. |
| 1:02.7 | How do you prepare for that? |
| 1:04.0 | I've had a few of these Thursday night deals before and it happens fast. |
| 1:08.5 | So that's all I know and really just got to stick to your rules and it's a quick |
| 1:13.3 | week. You kind of just go out there and like fall camp, you know, you just play the game and |
| 1:17.9 | each day is a new practice during fall camp. So that's kind of how we view it. It's very quick and |
| 1:22.9 | turnaround's quick. So that's how I'm approaching it. Good luck facing this Rams defense. What do you |
| 1:29.0 | see when you watch them on film? They're really good. They're, in my opinion, the number one |
| 1:33.5 | defense in the NFL after watching them. I know statistically they're pretty high, but I'm really |
| 1:38.8 | been impressed with them. So it's going to be a huge challenge. And yeah, they do a lot of good |
| 1:43.6 | stuff. The way they play their |
| 1:45.6 | mindset there's always 11 guys on the screen and they have a great defense line they played a lot of |
| 1:52.9 | different schemes they do a lot of stuff but do it well so it's going to be a challenge and been impressed |
| 1:59.4 | with them so can't wait to go against them tonight is not the night for you to worry about Christian McCaffrey's usage. When you got the B team in there basically, this is like week one preseason lineup that the Niners are shuffling out there. It's going to have to be a lot of 23. Be interesting to see if the Niners make Jordan James active tonight, maybe for the first |
