49ers shift wide receiver to injured reserve, sign tackle Sam Young

SANTA CLARA — Trent Taylor won’t be seen among the 49ers wide receiver corps until mid-November, at the earliest, after getting placed Friday on injured reserve.

If the 49ers choose to designate Taylor as one of their two allowable short-term IR players, Taylor could return to practice in six weeks (ahead of an Oct. 31 visit to Arizona) and play in a game as early as Nov. 17 against the Cardinals.
