49ers defensive tackle Maurice Hurst will “most likely” miss the 2022 season after tearing his biceps in practice on Friday, Kyle Shanahan told reporters. The injury will require Hurst to undergo surgery.
While Hurst will be out a while, Shanahan couldn’t say exactly how long it will be, but he expects it to be the entire year.
“We’ll see after surgery,” Shanahan said, via ESPN’s Nick Wagoner. “Usually that's how biceps work out, but don’t know for sure.”
Besides Hurst, Shanahan added defensive tackle Arik Armstead will be out “a few weeks” with a sprained right knee, and Hassan Ridgeway will miss time with a quadriceps strain.
