Could the 49ers defense welcome S Talanoa Hufanga back this weekend?

The San Francisco 49ers face Minnesota Vikings this weekend in a battle between 1-0 teams. The status of several key players remains up in the air, one such player is safety Talanoa Hufanga. Hufanga missed Week 1 as the Niners opted to delay his return from ACL surgery. However, head coach Kyle Shanahan said the team will reevaluate his status for Week 2 after practice this week. Hufanga was a limited participant in practice on Wednesday and Thursday.

Given how cautious the 49ers tend to be around artificial turf, it’s worth wondering if the 49ers will sit Hufanga for another week regardless of his status.
