On the record
Called Shots →Malik Mustapha, not Marques Sigle, lines up at safety alongside Ji'Ayir Brown with the 49ers' first-team defense on the opening defensive snap against the Los Angeles Rams on September 10, 2026. If Sigle is on the field with the first team on that snap and Mustapha is not, this call is wrong.
Written about him
The Safety Battle Everybody Previewed Is Not The One Being Held
Camp Battles, second installment. Nick Wagoner has Ji'Ayir Brown taking all the first-team free safety reps in a contract year, which is not what the preview said would happen. The live competition is beside him, between an incumbent with 22 starts and a fifth-round second-year player, and it has been contested for exactly one practice because Malik Mustapha strained a hamstring on Monday. Everything on the record was recorded in shorts. The pads arrive Friday.
Pearsall's Knee, Two Quarterback Lines, And A Strip-Sack To Open Team Drills
Nick Wagoner reported swelling in Ricky Pearsall's knee from a PCL injury carried over from last season, with surgery being explored. Jordan James has a fractured rib and Malik Mustapha a hamstring strain. Purdy completed 14 of 18 in team drills, Mac Jones 11 of 15, and Dre Greenlaw opened team drills by stripping Christian McCaffrey.
