SANTA CLARA, Calif. -- Tests confirmed that San Francisco 49ers safety Talanoa Hufanga suffered a torn ACL in his right knee against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, coach Kyle Shanahan announced Monday.

Shanahan had indicated on Sunday after the Niners' 27-14 win that the organization was bracing for an ACL injury that could mean the end of Hufanga's 2023 season.

With 8:40 left in the third quarter, Bucs quarterback Baker Mayfield dumped a pass off in the right flat to running back Rachaad White.
