The San Francisco 49ers have lost another starter to injury. Right tackle Mike McGlinchey suffered a torn quad during their week 9 loss to the Arizona Cardinals and will miss the remainder of the regular season.
McGlinchey drew the ire of 49ers fans on nearly a weekly basis in 2020, however, the former first-round pick was having a solid season. He has always been an above-average run blocker in a scheme that is at its best when it can run the ball and use play action to open passing lanes.
How the 49ers replace McGlinchey in the starting lineup will be interesting to watch as the team gets ready to face the Rams (7-2) on Monday night.
