Niners starting center Daniel Kilgore had surgery last month connected to the broken ankle he sustained in October and his anticipated mid-training-camp return has been pushed back, head coach Jim Tomsula said today.
Tomsula characterized the procedure as a minor clean-up surgery. He suggested calcium deposits might have been restricting blood flow in the area.
“It wasn’t a big deal,” Tomsula said. “It was a quick surgery … Feel real good about that … The fix on his ankle — that’s all great. We don’t have any issues with that. It came with the healing.
