One thing about this team is that there is never a dull moment. On Thursday, the NFL announced the 49ers were penalized one week for violating offseason practice rules.
How did the NFL find out? From a video posted on social media. We don’t know which specific video, but you’re not allowed to have contact and Demodore Lenoir’s video of him shutting down Austin Watkins during a 1-on-1 battle feels like the culprit.
The 49ers per Pelissero’s report won’t be allowed to do a week of rookie development because of a video that surfaced on social media from rookie minicamp that indicated San Francisco wasn’t following the offseason practice rules.
