San Francisco 49ers head coach Jim Harbaugh threw two players out of practice over the weekend for being rough with teammates, reports Matt Maiocco of CSNBayarea.com.

On Sunday, cornerback Chris Culliver decked receiver David Reed after a pass completion. Harbaugh then stopped practice, warning players to stop the cheap shots. 

Last Friday, Harbaugh sent wide receiver AnquanBoldin to the locker room early taking a swipe at cornerback Darryl Morris.
