Kittle is day-to-day with a groin injury; 49ers name 6 captains

49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan met with the media ahead of practice to provide injury updates ahead of Week 1. Star tight end George Kittle suffered a groin injury during Monday’s practice, so he’ll sit out Wednesday. Shanahan said Kittle would be day-to-day:

“Not sure. I was hoping he’d be good today. He did it a little on Monday and not feeling good today. We’ll have to see day-by-day.”

The 49ers announced they signed tight end Troy Fumagalli and wide receiver Connor Wedington to the practice squad and released wideout Willie Snead IV.

I understand the Bears don’t pose much of a threat against the 49ers, but you want Trey Lance to hit the ground running with a full complement of his weapons.
