49ers-Titans preseason game thread: It’s Kurtis Rourke time
Our first game thread of the 2026 season
The Green Bay location hosted the San Francisco 49ers' first preseason game of the 2025 NFL season against the Tennessee Titans. Observers will witness the selection of several rookies, including De’Zhaun Stribling and Romello Height, who will potentially see action. Coach Robert Saleh will start his primary players, providing the second team with an opportunity to showcase their skills.
Notably, Mac Jones will not participate in this matchup, potentially valuable if another team suffers a quarterback injury. Instead, Kurtis Rourke and Adrian Martinez will be the main focus, along with Jordan Watkins, Wesley Grimes, Will Pauling, and Malik Turner, all vying for roster and practice-squad positions. Additionally, the article will provide a first glimpse of Raheem Morris's defensive strategy, which may feature 5-man fronts for practice and repetition.
