The San Francisco 49ers have been dealing with several injuries affecting key players. While there isn’t information on two specific players being sidelined indefinitely recently, here are some notable injury updates:
Recent Injuries
Trey Lance: The quarterback underwent surgery for season-ending ankle injuries, including a fibula fracture and ligament disruption, in 2022. His recovery process is ongoing.
Tyrion Davis-Price: The running back suffered a high ankle sprain that will sideline him for a few weeks. The 49ers have signed former Colts running back Marlon Mack to their practice squad to bolster their running back corps.
Tyler Kroft: The tight end is expected to miss time with an MCL sprain. George Kittle, another key tight end, is on the mend after rejoining practice in a limited capacity.
Kyle Juszczyk: The fullback underwent surgery to repair a broken finger he suffered during a game against the Kansas City Chiefs.
Current Roster Updates
The 49ers have made adjustments to their roster in response to injuries. Some notable updates include:
Jimmy Garoppolo and Brock Purdy: The team currently has these two quarterbacks on their active roster, with plans to add a third quarterback to the practice squad in case of future injuries.
Jeff Wilson Jr. and Jordan Mason: The 49ers have these two running backs on their active roster, with Marlon Mack on their practice squad.
Impact on the Team
The 49ers’ performance may be affected by these injuries, particularly if key players like quarterbacks or running backs are unavailable. Coach Kyle Shanahan has been evaluating the depth of several position groups and making adjustments accordingly. The team’s ability to adapt to these challenges will be crucial in determining their success this season.
