A lot of wear and tear this time of year and guys are held out because they don't want it to be a season long thing. They would have been travelling to Irvine as well and I think they wanted to limit travel miles

The big injuries are Ambry Thomas broken arm, Burford broken hand, Greenlaw achilles still out, Hufuanga ACL still out, Aiyuk hold out, Williams hold out. Everything else is soreness, hamstrings etc

We had zero injuries from game 1 of the pre-season.

Sounds like excuses for the Niners if they don't succeed. That team is just fine. Very likely to contend for another trip to the Owl, and another choke.
the injury list going into the game was extensive.

More practices. They take no chances if someone is tight or sore
Teams should be at their absolute healthiest now, after the off season. I think there's a big difference between holding them out for minor things that wouldn't be an issue during the regular season, and wear and tear this time of year.

I would agree that the Niners have more cumulative wear and tear than most teams, though. It's been 5 years since you didn't make at least the conference championship! A begrudging tip of the hat.

I'm a little bit surprised the 9ers didn't cancel the SB due to that injurious grass practice field.
Just kidding. Sort of.
