Practices and their preseason opener have precipitated a little bit of minor shuffling in roster make-up and which gamers make the ultimate reduce. The break up continues to be even with 25 gamers on all sides of the ball with the three specialists rounding out the entire energetic roster.

As a reminder:

Nate Sudfeld

Brock Purdy’s preseason debut was enjoyable, nevertheless it wasn’t sufficient to maneuver him forward of Sudfeld and it’s exhausting to think about the 49ers conserving three quarterbacks.

Notable cuts: Jimmy Garoppolo, Brock Purdy

Trey Sermon
Tyrion Davis-Value
Jeff Wilson Jr.
JaMycal Hasty

5 is a ton of operating backs, however the 49ers have wanted a deep group of RBs over the past couple seasons and it’s simple to see them holding onto 5 with no actual quantity crunches elsewhere.

Deebo Samuel
Brandon Aiyuk
Jauan Jennings
Ray-Ray McCloud
Danny Grey

There’s a change right here with Malik Turner being left off with a purpose to add one other RB. This group of 5 receivers appears fairly locked in and it’ll take a reasonably substantial efficiency from one other WR to interrupt in and drive San Francisco to maintain six.

Notable cuts: Malik Turner, Marcus Johnson, Willie Snead, KeeSean Johnson.

Tight finish (4)

George Kittle
Charlie Woerner
Ross Dwelley
Tyler Kroft

4 tight ends is a change from our final projection the place the 49ers had simply three. Kroft’s pass-catching skill is an asset neither Woerner nor Dwelley have supplied of their time as 49ers.

Notable cuts: Tanner Hudson

Offensive line (9)

Trent Williams
Mike McGlinchey
Colton McKivitz
Jake Brendel
Daniel Brunskill
Aaron Banks
Jaylon Moore
Spencer Burford

One fewer offensive lineman than final time because of the extra tight finish. Possibly they wind up conserving an extra OL or two to offer them extra depth, however they might not have 9 NFL-caliber offensive linemen on the roster in 2022. This will likely be an fascinating group to look at over the past couple preseason video games to see if any gamers stand out in recreation conditions.

Notable cuts: Jason Poe, Nick Zakelj, Justin Skule

Defensive position (10)

Nick Bosa
Samson Ebukam
Drake Jackson
Charles Omenihu
Kerry Hyder
Kemoko Turay
Arik Armstead
Javon Kinlaw
Kevin Givens
Hassan Ridgeway

There’s no modifications to this group from our final projection. It feels fairly set and so they’ll nonetheless in all probability do away with an NFL-caliber defensive lineman or two.

Notable cuts: Robert Nkemdiche, Jordan Willis

Linebacker (5)

Oren Burks
Demetrius Flannigan-Fowles

There’s no change this time, nevertheless it wouldn’t be a serious shock if Curtis Robinson or one of many undrafted rookies winds up snagging that fifth spot.

Cornerback (6)

Charvarius Ward
Emmanuel Moseley
Ambry Thomas
Darqueze Dennard
Samuel Womack
Deommodore Lenoir

There’s nonetheless six cornerbacks, however a small change with the second-year CB Lenoir sliding in over veteran Dontae Johnson. Johnson suffered fractured rib cartilage within the preseason opener which can hinder his skill to land a roster spot. For now it’s Lenoir, however Johnson might wind up sneaking in relying on his well being. Jason Verrett may be an element when he returns from the PUP checklist. It seems like that will not occur till nearer to the center of the season although.

Notable cuts: Dontae Johnson, Ka’dar Hollman, Tariq Castro-Fields
