49ers Injury News: Kyle Shanahan Shares Updates on Christian McCaffrey, Nick Bosa
Shanahan said both stars are being handled cautiously, with the 49ers expecting them back for Week 1 after recent soreness and tightness.
- On Tuesday, 49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan provided injury updates on defensive end Nick Bosa and running back Christian McCaffrey, confirming both stars are expected ready for the September 10 season opener in Australia.
- Bosa is week-to-week recovering from a torn ACL with tendinitis, while McCaffrey missed Monday practice due to tightness. Shanahan described both absences as precautionary to prevent serious injury during camp.

- The 49ers face the Tennessee Titans on Thursday in their preseason opener, with key veteran George Kittle monitored as the team pursues Super Bowl aspirations heading into the regular season.
