The 49ers vs Chargers preseason matchup has become a focal point for fans and traders ahead of the regular season, with starters expected to see limited action. San Francisco has endured an onslaught of injuries in exhibition play but plans to use available key starters, including quarterback Brock Purdy, as reported in the articles.
Los Angeles will show its starters for the first time under the new offense installed by incoming offensive coordinator Mike McDaniel, and head coach Jim Harbaugh has indicated his starters will play one series. The Chargers opened strong in Week 1 of the preseason, routing Houston 27-7 with 275 passing yards and two rushing touchdowns from Amar Johnson, according to the coverage.
San Francisco lost its first exhibition 19-13 despite outgaining Tennessee 322-279. The 49ers also plan to debut Purdy in the preseason and monitor his chemistry with rookie wide receiver De’Zhaun Stribling, who hauled six catches for 93 yards in his first game. The matchup has drawn substantial trading interest; the articles note more than $110,000 has traded on the game on Kalshi.
