49ers Cornerback Lenoir Injured, Raising Concerns About Practice Intensity
SANTA CLARA – The San Francisco 49ers’ injury woes continue, with starting cornerback Deommodore Lenoir becoming the seventh player to be sidelined after a Thursday practice. Lenoir suffered a calf injury while jogging during the team’s most intense practice of the week and is now questionable for Sunday’s game against the Arizona Cardinals.
This latest injury raises concerns about the intensity of head coach Kyle Shanahan’s Thursday practices, with six other players already injured this way: Christian McCaffrey, Jordan Watkins, Yetur Gross-Matos, Alfred Collins, Kalia Davis and Keion White. With the 49ers already facing a decimated defense, the loss of Lenoir, along with other key defensive players, further weakens the team.
Darrell Luter Jr. is expected to fill Lenoir’s position, and it may not be a huge problem. The 49ers’ upcoming schedule features teams that don’t prioritize passing the ball, offering a potential window to rest Lenoir and avoid a more serious injury.
The injury to Lenoir highlights the growing list of player injuries due to practices. With several key players out, questions arise if Shanahan is pushing players too hard, leading to increased injuries.
