For once, the 49ers’ injury news is (mostly) positive.

Much like the 49ers’ only loss of the season against the Seattle Seahawks, Sunday will be remembered for missed opportunities and moments of questionable clock management.

The whole Emmanuel Moseley-Ahkello Witherspoon situation is a product of a luxury the 49ers have at a very difficult cornerback position.

For the litany of issues the 49ers had on Monday night, the performance of the Kwon Alexander-less linebacker group did not make the list.

Head coach Kyle Shanahan provided updates on Joe Staley, Ahkello Witherspoon, long snapper Kyle Nelson and explained his appreciation at getting his father, Mike, the game ball.

It’s August 30. By 4 p.m., the San Francisco 49ers will have 53 players on their roster. This piece will be updated as cuts happen throughout the day, until the team eventually gets down to that number.

It was clear when you walked down Marie P DeBartolo Way on Wednesday that it was Dwight Clark Day.

There are now just three days before the 49ers play some semblance of an actual football game.
