49ers starting CB suffers injury while making INT vs. Raiders

The San Francisco 49ers faced the Las Vegas Raiders in a Week 9 matchup, but the unit was down a man on the field as only five cornerbacks were active, with Nate Hobbs still sidelined. In the fourth quarter, things took a turn when 49ers cornerback Renardo Green intercepted Raiders quarterback Kirk Cousins in the end zone. However, when Green secured the ball, he remained on the ground.

After the play, Green eventually made his way to the bench and into the medical tent. It remained unclear at the time what injury Green had sustained and whether he would return to action. Should he be unable to play, the 49ers would be left with Deommodore Lenoir, Upton Stout, Siran Neal, and Ephesians Prysock as their cornerbacks. Later, the team announced that Green was listed as questionable to return for the next game.
