On August 11, 2026, the San Francisco 49ers held a joint practice session with the Tennessee Titans at the SAP Performance Facility. This was part of Day 11 of the 49ers’ 2026 Training Camp as both teams prepared for their preseason game set for August 13, 2026.
The joint practice allowed the teams to simulate game conditions ahead of the upcoming matchup. Concurrently, the 49ers hosted their annual nonprofit Day during training camp, featuring 13 local organizations through the 49ers Foundation’s Community Corner. Legendary 49ers alumni Jerry Rice and Keena Turner attended the event, supporting community engagement efforts.
The team also honored former player Dwight Clark during “87 Day” at training camp. The tribute included appearances by alumni and Dwight Clark’s niece, Meredith Matsumoto, alongside team executives such as President of Football Operations and General Manager John Lynch.
Photographs from training camp highlighted activity from San Francisco’s defense and quarterbacks, including Brock Purdy, Mac Jones, Adrian Martinez, and Kurtis Rourke. Additionally, Australian punter Jack Bouwmeester, part of the 49ers roster, may have the opportunity to participate in NFL games this season in his home stadium, representing a notable milestone for an Australian athlete in the Bay Area.
