Injury Woes Continue for 49ers: Javon Hargrave Out

The San Francisco 49ers haven’t had an easy go of things this season. Injuries mount and determine a different reality this season, and not least among them was Defensive Tackle Javon Hargrave tearing his right triceps partially against the Los Angeles Rams last game. This is potentially a season-ending injury for Hargrave. Let’s dig deeper to see what this means to the team and how it will influence future moves.

Implications On Defense By Javon Hargrave

Javon Hargrave was an essential member of the 49ers. In the early weeks of the season, he pulled off some great tackles and a sack; actually. He had his best game against the Rams, touching the quarterback several times. Hard to lose a player like that, especially in the current venture for retention of defensive strength.

The bad news isn’t only riddled with Javon Hargrave. Quarterback Brock Purdy has back soreness, but good news does exist: his MRI came back clean. He is day-to-day. With Javon Hargrave likely out for the season, the San Francisco 49ers need to find some replacements. Coach Shanahan explained he’d look first to potential players who have been added to the practice squad, including Evan Anderson and T.Y. McGill. Running Back Christian McCaffrey reportedly headed to Germany for a consultation regarding his Achilles injury.

San Francisco likely will also need to tap into Kevin Givens or Jordan Elliott. And don’t forget that Yetur Gross-Matos might play inside on passing downs. The right fit becomes so important when success in the long run depends.

Optimism Amidst The Setbacks

Despite all the injury issues, there is some positive news. George Kittle, the tight end, is expected to return this week to practice. Cornerback Charvarius Ward is cleared and ready to return. Here’s hoping this good news gives them some respite ahead of the games that lie before them. They will need all their available players at their disposal to get through this rough patch.

The Patriots happen to be one of the stiffest assignments the San Francisco 49ers are likely to contend with. Some of the key players already set out; other players will have to surge and become like brothers, protecting each other, on and off the field. The coaching staff needs to be sober about it so that they can manage a challenge against the opposition.

Conclusion: Remain Optimistic in Tough Times

Injuries are part of the game, and the San Francisco 49ers appear to be getting their fair share of them this season. Letting Hargrave lose was a tough one, but they are more than well-equipped to adapt and find alternative solutions. With Kittle potentially returning and with others getting a chance, it’s still early in the season. More importantly, the 49ers need to keep their heads above all the difficulties facing them, particularly in staying competitive and maintaining hope of making it to the playoffs.
