49ers training camp report: Day 5
SANTA CLARA – Here are the highlights from the 49ers’ second padded practice of training camp.
THE GOOD
1. ILB NaVorro Bowman. Struggled in man coverage during OTAs and minicamp, but didn’t struggle in man coverage today. On the third play of 11-on-11’s Colin Kaepernick attempted a short pass to running back Jarryd Hayne. Bowman read Kaepernick’s eyes, dove in front of the pass and knocked it away with the tips of his fingers. Bowman wouldn’t have made that play a few months.
2. P Bradley Pinion. Blasted a 65-yard punt so high in the air punt returner Mario Hull had no choice but to call for a fair catch.
