The San Francisco 49ers had their first injury report of the season. It’s a day later than usual because they’re playing on Monday night. Here’s Thursday’s official injury report:
Did not participate:
DE Yetur Gross-Matos (knee)
LB Dee Winters (ankle)
Limited:
LG Aaron Banks (finger)
RB Isaac Guerendo (groin)
S Talanoa Hufanga (knee)
WR Jauan Jennings (ankle)
RB Christian McCaffrey (calf/Achilles)
Full:
LB Tatum Bethune (ankle)
RG Spencer Burford (hand)
P Mitch Wishnowsky (back, right knee)
Shanahan said McCaffrey’s injury isn’t new. When you see “Achilles,” it’s easy to freak out, but we’re talking about the same region of the lower leg where the muscles and tendons work in tandem.
