The New York Post reports that the 49ers are exploring moving their practice facility as space around Levi's Stadium tightens, citing CEO Al Guido's focus on maximizing competitive advantages. The article says logistics and growth would drive a move, while revisiting the adjacent electrical-substation theory that the team dismissed after hiring an independent scientist. It notes that injuries remained above the league average in 2024 and 2025 and says relocation could bring the long-running debate to an end.

"The move would primarily be driven by logistics and growth, but it also arrives after months of discussion surrounding one of the NFL’s strangest injury-related storylines."

"Earlier this year, a theory circulated suggesting the electrical substation adjacent to the team’s longtime practice facility could be contributing to San Francisco’s injury problems."

— Ryan Anderson

"The organization investigated the claim and ultimately dismissed it. General manager John Lynch revealed the team hired an independent scientist to study the issue, describing the findings as a “big nothing burger.”"
