San Francisco 49ers News

With Arik Armstead likely headed to the 49ers’ injured reserve list, San Francisco moved quickly to secure veteran help along the team’s defensive line.

The 49ers will honor the 1981 Super Bowl winning team at halftime of Sunday’s game vs. the Cowboys at Levi’s Stadium, the first of the franchise’s five Super Bowl winning squads. The two players responsible for that team’s most iconic play, Joe Montana and Dwight Clark, are scheduled to address the crowd according to Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports Bay Area.

With a change in quarterbacks, a knack for officials to make bad calls against the 49ers at crucial times, the team’s litany of defensive injuries has gone relatively unnoticed. That might change after the team lost its third starter and second on the defensive line Sunday, when Arik Armstead broke his hand. He might join […]

“He won three quarters of his games in the Big Ten at Iowa, which is a loaded confidence,” Larry said. “This guy should have been starting from Week 1. It’s unfortunate that he wasn’t.”

The 49ers suffered another blow to a crucial defensive player on Monday, when Kyle Shanahan announced during his press conference that defensive lineman Arik Armstead will be out indefinitely with a broken hand sustained in San Francisco’s loss to the Redskins.

The 49ers were again the vicim of an awful call late in the fourth quarter of Sunday’s 26-24 loss to the Washington Redskins, when Pierre Garcon was called for offensive pass interference with 22 seconds remaining, knocking the 49ers out of field goal range, and spoiling C.J. Beathard’s shot at a thrilling comeback.

Kyle Shanahan wanted a stationary quarterback to run his scheme. That effort with Brian Hoyer failed miserably and now he has a more impromptu player leading his brilliant offense

Two days after releasing veteran linebacker NaVorro Bowman, a report surfaced that the 49ers might be looking to move another big name before the trade deadline — running back Carlos Hyde.

Whether C.J. Beathard should have played earlier or not, he could be much better this week against visiting Dallas with a full slate of practices to prepare with the first team.

In the midst of the 49ers’ loss, C.J. Beathard entered the game for his first extensive NFL action and played well enough to be named San Francisco’s starting quarterback.
