WHAT HAPPENED

San Francisco 49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan said on Saturday that he is almost fully recovered from a July 14 car crash and will coach the team’s first exhibition game Thursday night. The crash left him with a concussion, broken ribs, a broken nose and hand, and more than 40 stitches over his eye, but he reports only mild lingering headaches and fatigue.

In his first training‑camp news conference, Shanahan described his physical progress, noting that the cast on his hand is off and his ribs feel good except when he sneezes. He added that his head feels much better, though he still experiences occasional headaches and fatigue, which he says keeps his routine from being exactly the same. According to the Associated Press, Shanahan has attended practice every day this summer as part of his rehabilitation.

The 49ers’ exhibition opener is a key preseason milestone, and Shanahan’s return to coaching duties signals that the team’s leadership is ready to resume full preparation for the upcoming season.

  • Kyle Shanahan recovered enough to coach the Thursday night exhibition opener after a July 14 car crash.
  • Injuries: concussion, broken ribs, broken nose and hand; 40+ stitches over eye.
  • He reports only minor headaches and fatigue remain; he has been present at all summer practices.
