49ers' Javon Hargrave Out for Season with Injury

The San Francisco 49ers are facing a significant injury crisis as defensive tackle Javon Hargrave is likely out for the season due to a partially torn triceps, which will require surgery. Hargrave sustained the injury during a recent loss to the Los Angeles Rams, where he had shown impressive performance, including his first sack of the season. The 49ers are also dealing with injuries to key players including running back Christian McCaffrey (on injured reserve), wide receiver Deebo Samuel, and tight end George Kittle, with quarterback Brock Purdy listed as day-to-day due to back soreness. Coach Kyle Shanahan noted that while Hargrave's absence is a substantial loss, the team is exploring options to fill the gaps in their roster. The 49ers' upcoming game against the New England Patriots will test their depth, with both teams currently holding 1-2 records. As the 49ers navigate this challenging period, they hope to keep their playoff aspirations alive despite the setbacks.
