49ers place Brock Coyle on injured reserve, call up Najee Toran, sign linebacker

The San Francisco 49ers announced some transactions Wednesday afternoon. The team has placed linebacker Brock Coyle on injured reserve and signed linebacker Terence Garvin. Additionally, they promoted offensive lineman Najee Toran from the practice squad and signed WR Frank Stephens to the practice squad. The 49ers had one open roster spot on the 53-man roster after placing Dekoda Watson on injured reserve last weekend.

The Coyle news is of note given his injury. He was placed in the concussion protocol after suffering a head injury in Week 1. This suggests either another injury, or a particularly concerning concussion.
