The San Francisco 49ers are already beginning to face the injury bug to start the season, as they placed running back Christian McCaffrey on Injured Reserve, while wide receiver Deebo Samuel will miss a few weeks with a calf strain.
After a blowout victory in Week 1, the 49ers offense didn’t look as strong in Week 2, putting together just 17 points, with quarterback Brock Purdy committing two turnovers in a loss to the Minnesota Vikings.
San Francisco is still looking to put everything together on that end, but there has been a lot of discourse around the 49ers and their ability to compete with the talent they have, even with a few injuries.
