SANTA CLARA, Calif. — One day after three of their most important players left their loss to the Cleveland Browns with various ailments, the San Francisco 49ers seemingly got some good news on the injury front.
On Monday afternoon, Niners coach Kyle Shanahan offered updates on injured receiver Deebo Samuel (shoulder), running back Christian McCaffrey (oblique/rib) and left tackle Trent Williams (right ankle).
While the 49ers are awaiting additional imaging on McCaffrey, Shanahan sounded optimistic on all three situations. Shanahan said Samuel and Williams would be «day-to-day» this week as the 49ers prepare for Monday night's trip to Minnesota to play the Vikings.
That comes after Samuel departed in the first quarter Sunday with a shoulder injury and did not return while Williams gritted through the game after spraining his ankle with 3:14 left in the opening quarter.
