Some assorted notes and nuggets from the San Francisco 49ers’ 33-6 shellacking of the New England Patriots on Sunday at Gillette Stadium:
— The Patriots lost three players to injuries in the loss: wide receiver N’Keal Harry (head), guard Joe Thuney (ankle) and offensive tackle Justin Herron (ankle). All three left the game and did not return.
Thuney’s injury is believed to be a mild low ankle sprain, according to a report from NFL Media’s Tom Pelissero — good news for a player who has not missed a game in his five-year NFL career.
Before leaving Sunday’s game, Thuney, a second-team All-Pro last season, hadn’t missed an offensive snap since Week 7 of last season.
