49ers training camp: Highs and lows, winners and losers?

SANTA CLARA — My main takeaway from 49ers training camp: This cast is essentially the same that reached the last Super Bowl, and it has the NFC’s best chance to return, thanks to the 49ers’ continuity and well-placed additions.

Don’t dwell on the soft-tissue injuries that should not sideline their stars for the Sept. 13 opener against Arizona.

Don’t look at the “Super Bowl hangover” as a curse, but rather historical motivation.

And don’t assume that a 16-game season awaits.

Impressively, the 49ers and NFL have skirted any COVID-19 outbreak thus far. Tomorrow is not guaranteed.
