The 49ers fell short in their preseason opener, losing 19-13 to the Titans—but it was a game packed with rookie highlights and defensive fireworks. De’Zhaun Stribling exploded for seven catches and 63 yards, including a big 32-yard play that set up the team’s only touchdown, while Jordan Watkins added six catches for 59 yards. The defense turned it up in the second half, sacking Titans QBs and forcing key incompletions. Rookie QBs Kurtis Rourke and Adrian Martinez split reps—Rourke started strong before exiting with a rib injury, while Martinez showed mobility and poise under center. Despite moving the ball well for 322 yards and controlling possession, the offense couldn’t convert in the red zone, settling for field goals. Next stop: joint practices in LA ahead of their next preseason tilt.
