49ers tight end ruled out with concussion vs. Raiders
The San Francisco 49ers lost one of their tight ends in the middle of their preseason battle with the Las Vegas Raiders on Thursday.
The San Francisco 49ers lost tight end Brayden Willis to a concussion during their preseason finale against the Las Vegas Raiders on Thursday. Willis, a seventh-round pick from Oklahoma, joined the team in 2023 but has only played 86 offensive snaps in three seasons without ever catching a pass. With Willis out and star tight end George Kittle not active, the 49ers will rely on rookies Hayden Rucci and Khalil Dinkins to cover for him in the remainder of the game.
