Injured in practice Sunday
Just a handful of plays into the team portion of Sunday’s practice, San Francisco 49ers running back Jerick McKinnon came up grabbing at his right knee.
After limping to the side to receive attention from the medical staff and sitting out the rest of practice, McKinnon was slated for an MRI to check for potential structural damage on Sunday afternoon, according to the team. (ESPN)
Nerdy Football Analysis: With Matt Breida already on the shelf until the season opener, the 49ers are hoping for good news on McKinnon’s MRI. McKinnon signed autographs for fans after the injury and stated that he was fine but we’ll await further details. Joe Williams and Raheem Mostert are the current healthy options on the depth chart.
