San Francisco 49ers News

The San Francisco 49ers continue to be plagued by injuries. Before the first quarter concluded, the 49ers lost two key offensive players in running back Matt Breida and wide receiver Pierre Garcon.

The speedy receiver will miss Sunday’s contest with injuries to his quadriceps and hamstring.

A loss in Week 5 wouldn’t dub the remaining 11 games meaningless, but it would dub the 2018 season as a wrap.

San Francisco’s top options at middle and weak-side linebacker have been asserted. It’s likely to remain that way for seasons to come.

The three-time first-team All-Pro cornerback practiced Thursday, lending some optimism for his Week 5 availability.

Kyle Shanahan met with media and gave an update on the golden egg of the 49ers franchise, telling reporters that Jimmy Garoppolo did indeed have surgery on Wednesday morning to repair his torn left ACL.

The 49ers allowed three touchdowns on third down in their 29-27 loss to the Los Angeles Chargers.

The 49ers favored the passing game in last Sunday’s loss, a result of deteriorating health among the offensive line and defensive looks designed to stop the run.

The most positive breakthrough from the 49ers’ two-point loss Sunday is none of their injuries have long-term implications.

In just about every facet of his performance in Sunday’s loss, C.J. Beathard looked improved from his 2017 self.
