There were some injury fears during the game. However, in the end, the San Francisco 49ers escaped a 41-23 Wild Card win against the Seattle Seahawks in relatively good health.
San Francisco entered the game with only two players sidelined with injuries. They were quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo (foot) and cornerback Ambry Thomas (ankle).
Head coach Kyle Shanahan provided an update on injuries in the game and named two players. However, neither injury was significant.
Wide receiver Jauan Jennings he suffered an ankle injury but returned to the game. Defensive end Samson Ebukam he also suffered an ankle injury. He hasn’t returned to the game. However, Shanahan said the defender could return if the outcome of the game was called into question after play.
Next weekend, the 49ers will host the next top-seeded winner of the Wild Card Round. It could be the Minnesota Vikings, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers or the Dallas Cowboys.
