The Carolina Panthers are likely to be sellers, and a rental at wide receiver isn’t the worst idea for the 49ers.

With Brandon Aiyuk down for the year after tearing his ACL, MCL, and meniscus, the San Francisco 49ers are a possible buyer in the wide receiver market.

Head coach Kyle Shanahan was asked on Monday whether the team would address wide receiver at the deadline, given the injuries on the team:

“It’s not necessarily just try to address certain positions. You look at what’s available that you think can help your team get better. And if there’s anything out...

San Francisco 49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan provided injury updates as the team heads into their bye week

Running back Jordan Mason (shoulder) and wide receiver Deebo Samuel (rib/oblique strain) will be evaluated after the bye week. Mason aggravated the same shoulder.

The San Francisco 49ers have reached their long-awaited bye week and welcomed the week off in the best way possible: with a 30-24 win over the Dallas Cowboys.

With the win, San Francisco moved to 4-4 and entered the bye week with much-needed momentum. But depending on whether you are a glass-half-full or a glass-half-empty person, the 49ers could be 2-6 right now or 6-2.

The win on Sunday night could be seen as an example of a glass half empty or...

San Francisco has been without one of its top linebackers all season long.

The San Francisco 49ers are entering their bye week, currently standing at 4-4 after a win over the Dallas Cowboys over the weekend as they look to regroup and go on a second-half run.

Injuries have been a big story for San Francisco, as the team has already dealt with a few season-ending issues to key stars, while others have dealt with problems that have kept them out for extended time.

We saw the best and worst versions of the San Francisco 49ers on Sunday night

Basketball is typically referred to as a game of runs with an up-and-down nature to its scoring. Obviously, it was not a basketball game, but Sunday night’s tilt between the San Francisco 49ers and Dallas Cowboys was like a game of runs, especially in the second half.
