The San Francisco 49ers continue their practice week on Thursday, preparing for their third preseason game of the year, against the Minnesota Vikings. Defensive coordinator Robert Saleh will meet with the media at 12:30 p.m. PT, and that will be followed by locker room availability until 1:10 p.m. The team will then hit the practice field at 1:20 p.m.
DeForest Buckner and Jimmie Ward were back at practice on Wednesday in limited fashion. Saleh will likely have comments on their status, although I would expect him to defer specific health questions to the training staff.
Practice will be open to the media for individual drills, but then closed to the media for team drills. The 49ers will stream Shanahan’s press conferences on their website, and you can also watch it on Periscope and the team’s app.
The 49ers beat writers will also have updates from the coach and player media sessions. I’ve embedded our 49ers beat writer Twitter list so you can follow along.
