Matt Breida is under the injury microscope
Injuries. The San Francisco 49ers Week 7 loss to the Los Angeles Rams was brought to you by the letter ‘I’ for “injuries.” One injury that seems to be recurring every week is Matt Breida going down. Multiple times. He went down on the first play Sunday, stopping the game and limped off the field later on in the first half.
It’s not a good situation. Especially when the 49ers are already short a starting running back in Jerick McKinnon.
Each week, Breida becomes a questionable, maybe a game time decision, and each week he’s found suiting up, trying to shoulder the 49ers running game in place of McKinnon. Every time he goes down, it looks like it may be his last play for awhile.
