Good morning and welcome to 49ers in 5, your daily update on everything happening with the team that you need to know.

I'm Rob Stats Guerrera. Today is Friday, August 8, 2025. Here's what's happening with your San Francisco 49ers.

Yesterday was the joint practice with the Broncos, and of course, we can't have nice things.

First round draft pick, Mikel Williams hobbled off the field with a knee injury.

Here was Kyle Shinnhan afterwards.

He had a good exam.

Hopefully just hyper-extended his knee, so we're going to get a further evaluation now, but what good when we examine them. So hopefully just a little bit.

Mikel got hurt after the first padded practice, and now he is hurt after the first joint practice. That is not a good sign. Hopefully he is not out for very long.

Other injuries, safety Marquis

Siegel and defensive back Dorel Luter Jr. were both checked out for concussions, but they were

both cleared and returned to practice. In terms of what took place on the field, the Broncos

won the day. They swarmed Brock Purdy constantly. They stuffed multiple runs in the backfield.

Now, the Niners did rebound somewhat as the practice went on.

But if you check with beatwriters from both teams, they kind of agreed that Denver handled everything.

San Francisco threw at them, which was just fine with Brock Purdy, however.

They came out, you know, ready to roll, man, to compete.

You could feel them.

You know, they're in the backfield a couple times and had a couple sacks and obviously some TFLs that look like. So, you know, they were ready to roll. But at the same time, and it's not like we weren't competing at all. We are. And there's things that we need to get better at. That's why we're practicing. But I also do think it was nice to have a long practice like that

so that we practice, we get fatigued.

You know, that's going to happen in games. You know, you're not going to have a great first half, but, you know, you regroup, and then it's like, how are you going to finish? And so I thought we had a good, you know, second half of the practice and, you know, facing some adversity like that as an offense

and then and then bouncing back and having some good periods at the end. So I thought it was

really good for us. We need that kind of stuff to, you know, sort of understand where we're at and where we need to get better and learn from it and understand that football is not going to be perfect. But how are you going to respond? Unlike last year, there will be no second day of joint practice. There will be no practice at all today. As a matter
