""[Center] Jake Brendel has a hamstring," Shanahan said. "He's expected to miss a couple of weeks and also, we found out that [defensive end Bryce] Huff also has a hamstring. He will also be in that same boat with possibly a couple of weeks." On Monday, Shanahan said he was told that Huff injured the hamstring on one of the last two defensive plays of the game. The injury follows one of Huff's best performances since arriving to San Francisco via trade in the offseason."
"Without Bosa, Huff and defensive end Yetur Gross-Matos (hamstring/knee), the Niners are down to Sam Okuayinonu, Mykel Williams and Trevis Gipson as the only healthy defensive ends on the roster. Robert Beal Jr. and William Bradley-King are short-term options to be elevated from the practice squad but it's also reasonable to think the Niners will continue scouring the potential trade market for help ahead of the Nov. 4 deadline."
Center Jake Brendel has a hamstring and is expected to miss a couple of weeks. Defensive end Bryce Huff also has a hamstring and is expected to miss a couple of weeks after injuring it on one of the last two defensive plays. Huff produced five tackles, a sack, five pressures and a forced fumble against the Falcons and became the team's top pass-rushing threat after Nick Bosa's season-ending ACL tear. With Bosa, Huff and Yetur Gross-Matos sidelined or limited, the Niners have Sam Okuayinonu, Mykel Williams and Trevis Gipson as the only healthy defensive ends. Robert Beal Jr. and William Bradley-King are potential short-term elevations from the practice squad, and the team may pursue trades before the Nov. 4 deadline.
