General manager John Lynch and coach Kyle Shanahan, in speaking Tuesday at the NFL scouting combine, expressed optimism about Hurd’s recovering from a “stubborn” stress fracture in his lower back.
“We think we’re nearing toward a much better place, to where he’ll be cleared for all activities,” Lynch said.
