The Titans caught a break from the NFL schedule-maker as they can test out their new toys vs. a 49ers team that couldn't care less about preseason results.
First-time head coach Brian Callahan is expected to turn the Tennessee starters loose for chunks of the preseason schedule with the need to mesh so many arrivals on both sides of the ball. But don’t look for a similar approach from the visitors, who take the field for the first time since their Super Bowl heartbreak.At the risk of stating the obvious, these two teams are in very different places with the new season less than a month away.
All the signs point to Brian Callahan sending out his starters for a few series, or possibly the full first quarter. These are going to be really meaningful snaps for the hosts, who have some key camp battles to resolve, particularly in their receiving corps after DeAndre Hopkins’ knee injury. With Kyle Shanahan keeping his key men in bubble wrap until the real games begin, it’s probably going to be a mix of Brandon Allen and Josh Dobbs at quarterback for the 49ers. That’s a competitive combination but they’ll be working with backups and on-the-bubble roster players. Even first-round pick Ricky Pearsall has been hampered by a shoulder injury in training camp.
