The 49ers enter Week 6 alone in first place in the NFC West for the first time since 2019, and fans have legitimate concerns over the team’s injury woes.
CHARLOTTE, N.C. – The aftermath of the 49ers’ victory Sunday saw the Panthers fire their coach and defensive coordinator , and it saw this week’s 49ers mailbag fill up with injury-related or championship-dream questions:Sidelined in the second half, Nick Bosa was still bothered by a tight groin on Monday and will be evaluated before Wednesday’s first practice in White Sulphur Springs, W.V., where the 49ers are stationed before next Sunday’s game.
“When you have the speed that Tevin has and the mindset to push blocks before you cut, it makes blocking so much easier for us blocking on the edges,” Kittle added. “It gets them to hop outside and he cuts off your block and it usually ends in a pancake.”Ward will undergo surgery today after fracturing his left hand covering Sunday’s opening kickoff in his season debut.
Surgery will determine whether Ward can play with a club-like soft cast that Patrick Willis and Takeo Spikes both wore in 2010. Otherwise, Ward could return to Injured Reserve, and players are eligible to come off that list twice a season.He’ll earn a spot in the Edward J. DeBartolo Sr. 49ers Hall of Fame, complete with a statue in the museum of him wearing a “Feels Great, Baby!” T-shirt. Maybe that statue should be on the side field he was relegated to in training camp.
“It’s part of the business and everyone knows it and what you sign up for. But you know how tough it is on the individual and families,” Shanahan said. “You never wish that on everybody I have a lot of respect for Matt. I know he’ll land on his feet and I hope he finds a better situation.”For the third straight year, the 49ers are embedded in the West Virginia hills, at The Greenbrier Resort in White Sulphur Springs.
teams that have played them had to. I was just focused on the game and what was on the field. I don’t think it had an impact.”
