The San Francisco 49ers held their second practice of training camp on Sunday in a session that was largely dominated by the defense. Here are 11 observations from the 49ers second non-padded practice.
1. Arik Armstead found himself in the backfield (again), this time, on the first play of 11-on-11 work. Armstead blew past Jimmy Garoppolo forcing an incompletion. DeForest Buckner, Kapron Lewis-Moore and Kentavius Street also had “would-be” sacks.
2. San Francisco’s defense got the better half of the offense on Sunday, however they did make several notable plays.
- During 7-on-7 work, Garoppolo found Dante Pettis on a comeback route against Ahkello Witherspoon.
- Under pressure, Nick Mullens connected with Pettis, who was in double coverage for a nice catch up the sideline.
- C.J. Beathard aired it out to tight end Tyree Mayfield for a big gain.
- One of the best plays on offense came as Mullens connected with Trent Taylor on a slant, beating his man for the biggest pickup of the day.
