49ers preseason week 2; What to look for against Minnesota

The 49ers are ready for week two of the preseason. San Francisco traveled to Minnesota on Monday, where they participated in joint practice sessions with the Vikings on Wednesday and Thursday. On Saturday night, the two teams will face off at U.S. Bank Stadium in Minneapolis.

Here is what to watch against the Vikings.

Who is playing?

Don’t expect to see many of the starters. Kyle Shanahan told reporters last week he feels the two practice sessions are more beneficial than the game.

With a short week coming up, the 49ers play their preseason finale on Thursday night in Houston; the initial plan was for Trey Lance and others to sit against Minnesota.
