The 49ers went through a relatively tame practice against the Raiders, but among those out with injuries were George Kittle, Dre Greenlaw and Ray-Ray McCloud, the last of whom has a broken wrist.
HENDERSON, Nev. — A 49ers-Raiders affair with passes instead of punches? Such was the case Thursday as these former Bay Area neighbors squared off in the first of two joint practices before Sunday’s preseason opener.It also was mostly about Jimmy Garoppolo wearing No. 10 in a different uniform, and, in the crispest drill of the 90-minute session, producing a touchdown drive, then both he and the 49ers exchanging kind words about his previous 5 1/2-year tenure in the red and gold.
Kittle observed practice because of an adductor strain earlier this week, and his first-team reps appeared split between returning veterans Charlie Woerner and Ross Dwelley. Greenlaw came out with a hamstring pull early in Thursday’s session, so he will miss at least the next week of practice, as will Kittle, according to coach Kyle Shanahan.
