The 49ers brought Matt Pryor aboard to compete for an offensive line starting job, but it might be tough for him to hang around beyond training camp.
The 49ers' first three defensive end spots seem set. Free-agent acquisition Austin Bryant is gunning for the fourth spot on the roster.
Quarterback Brock Purdy will get his first chance to face another team since offseason elbow surgery when San Francisco practices against the Las Vegas Raiders this week but is unlikely to play in the 49ers' exhibition opener. Shanahan said Purdy will take part in both joint practices against the Raiders on Thursday and Friday and will get plenty of work with the starting team. Most of San Francisco's top players will likely sit out the game on Sunday.
After being a fringe player on the 49ers roster the last two years, Jaylon Moore is now poised to hold a critical backup job.
Purdy unexpectedly took part in Thursday's lighter-than-normal practice and will be on hand for Friday's session as well.
