A week after training camp has started the San Francisco 49ers have a few players missing time due to various injuries. Defensive end Drake Jackson has been ruled out for the rest of training camp with a knee injury, head coach Kyle Shanahan did not provide a timeline for his return. Along with Jackson, wide receiver Jacob Cowing and running back Isaac Guerendo are out with hamstring injuries. Cowling is only expected to miss 10 days. Guerendo will miss several weeks with his hamstring injury.

This is a blow for Drake Jackson who was drafted in the 2nd round out of USC in the 2022 NFL Draft. He has been dealing with several injuries in his short time with the Niners. Cowing and Guerendo are camp bodies at this point in camp, if they are not healthy leading up to the regular season both players may be candidates for injured reserve or worst, cut from the team altogether. Guerendo shocked the fantasy world with his athleticism on display at the NFL Combine. Athleticism doesn’t mean anything with this coaching staff unless players grasp the offense. This puts Guerendo way behind on learning this offense. The seasonal outlook is not bright for Guerendo.
