49ers injury updates: Ambry Thomas will be out for ‘some time’ with a broken forearm

The San Francisco 49ers' comeback attempt fell short against the Tennesee Titans in their preseason opener. Although they seemed to escape without any serious injuries, that did not turn out to be the case.

After the game, 49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan said that cornerback Ambry Thomas suffered a broken forearm and will be out indefinitely. Shanahan had no specific timetable for Thomas’s return other than, “It will be some time.”

The 49ers are set to have joint practices next week against the New Orleans Saints, and Shanahan said the team needs to figure out how they’ll work around that with the number of injuries they have.
