The San Francisco 49ers took the field Sunday for “Back Together Weekend,” the NFL’s league-wide celebration marking the return of all 32 teams. Tight end George Kittle joined NFL Network’s Sherree Burruss during practice to talk about the team’s focused push to remain a top contender this season. Adding to the family atmosphere, head coach Kyle Shanahan’s father, Mike Shanahan, was on the sidelines watching practice. The two-time Super Bowl–winning coach has been a regular presence at camp since Kyle took over in 2017.
Before the action got underway, president of football operations and general manager John Lynch addressed the Faithful in attendance, rallying their support for the season ahead.
“We need some energy,” Lynch told the crowd. “It’s training camp, and believe me, I did them as a player for 15 years… Believe me, you feel and rely on the energy of your fans. I know there are no better fans than the Faithful. So bring it today, and bring it throughout the season.”
