Raiders Week 9 injury report vs 49ers: SF without 3 major weapons
The 49ers were missing three of their top offensive weapons on Wednesday as they began preparation for the Raiders Week 9.
This Sunday, the Battle of the Bay will take place as the Raiders and 49ers clash. On Wednesday, both teams practiced for the week ahead. For the Raiders, only cornerback Darien Porter is expected to miss time due to a groin injury. The 49ers, however, are dealing with significant absences among their offensive stars. Wide receiver Mike Evans (ribs/achilles), running back Christian McCaffrey (hamstring), and wide receiver Deebo Samuel (hamstring) were all absent from practice. Among these missing players, Deebo Samuel's hamstring issue is particularly noteworthy.
A notable point is that defensive tackle Tonka Hemingway, who saw limited action last Sunday against the Jets due to a stinger, is not listed on the Raiders' injury report. The one player who has had a similar stinger incident in Week 6 against the Bills but ended up with a concussion and missing the following game against the Rams is worth keeping an eye on. As such, the status of the 49ers' key players will be the main concern this week.
