Justin Herbert will play in the preseason game against the Rams. Coach Jim Harbaugh expects starters to play up to eight plays, emphasizing that preseason snaps are important for offensive cohesion. Most starters are participating, with only safety Derwin James Jr. and Khalil Mack being excused. Herbert missed previous preseason games due to injury and pandemic restrictions. Guard Mekhi Becton will not play due to injury, and Harbaugh stated his status for the upcoming season opener remains uncertain.
"Our guys want to play. They want the first series of the season not to be the first series of the season."
"Preseason snaps are beneficial, particularly for the offense, to get on the same page with timing and execution."
