San Francisco 49ers' head coach, Kyle Shanahan, expressed dissatisfaction with the condition of the practice field at UNLV ahead of Super Bowl LVIII.

Despite the concerns, Shanahan stated that he was 'not worried at all' about practicing on the field and that the team would not alter their practice schedule. The NFL Players Association confirmed that no plastic was placed on the field. However, Shanahan later commented that they would deal with the field's condition and expressed satisfaction with the team's first practice in Las Vegas.
