Eesh, what a time to be a 49ers fan. The practise squad is on the field, and some of the top players have been sidelined for who knows how long. They were able to pull off a victory against the lowly Giants with a squad of backups, but who knows how long that will last. Luckily for them, they play the even worse NY Jets in the late Sunday game.
Looking at the list of injuries, you wonder how long it will take for them to fully recover and get back to defending their NFC title. It doesn’t look like it this year.
Jimmy Garoppolo
The broken man is broken once again. Jimmy G struggles to stay healthy every season, and ankle injuries are like foxes, once they crap in your yard, they keep coming back.
George Kittle
Sign new contract, get injured. It’s like 2020 is involved in the NFL! Kittle will rebound from his knee injury, but he’ll still need to take it slow.
Raheem Mostert
Another Niner, another ankle. San Fran is quickly speeding through their RBs, and you wonder how many of them will make it until the end of the season.
Tevin Coleman
Another RB with another ankle injury. They’re in silicon valley, surely they can just 3D print some of these parts for the team to get them back out there.
Ahkello Witherspoon
Did you know he was Reese Witherspoons son? He’s not, but Niners fans will believe anything if it gets their team back. He’s one of 2 CBs with a pulled hammy.
The 49ers are going to need to pull it together if they want to even think of contending this year. There’s always one team who takes the season injury award, and sadly this season it looks like San Fran.
