49ers’ Trey Lance to miss 7 days with injury to throwing hand

According to San Francisco 49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan, rookie quarterback Trey Lance will be out of practice for the next seven days suffering a microchip to one of the fingers on his throwing hand.

“It’s a microchip of a bone that’s off. It’s a chip fracture, which is worse than a jam and why it won’t heal on its own,” Shanahan said on a media conference call. “He can’t take snaps right now. We’ll rest it for seven days and hopefully, he’ll be good next Monday when we get to practice.”

Shanahan would not specify which finger was injured, however, based on the TV replays it is either the index finger or thumb.
