The San Francisco 49ers were able to get out of Week 1 nearly injury-free, as cornerback Ambry Thomas was cleared of a concussion, which was the lone listed injury following the game for head coach Kyle Shanahan.
Unfortunately, the first injury of the game for the 49ers in Week 2 has arrived, as cornerback Ambry Thomas is questionable to return with a knee injury.
Thomas had started the game at outside cornerback, but was replaced by veteran Isaiah Oliver, who moved inside, placing Deommodore Lenoir on the outside to start the defense's second drive.
Potential reason why the #49ers playing Isaiah Oliver early. https://t.co/pxp2tMnT8F— Rohan Chakravarthi (@RohanChakrav) September 17, 2023
Earlier in the game, wide receiver Brandon Aiyuk momentarily entered the injury tent with a shoulder injury, but returned to the game during San Francisco's second drive.
Aiyuk did look a little shaken up following an incompletion that forced a field goal opportunity in the redzone during the second drive, but was seen with his helmet on ready for the 49ers ahead of their third drive.
Stay tuned for other injury updates!
