Game News
#Vikings coach Kevin O'Connell told reporters that WR Justin Jefferson has a quad contusion, after a collision with #49ers LB Fred Warner. He's going to be day-to-day.
Broadcast says George Kittle went to the locker room for an IV.
@AdamSchefter: 49ers TE George Kittle carted to locker room.
From @NFLGameDay: #49ers RB Christian McCaffrey may need as much as 6 weeks to heal from his Achilles tendinitis, a frustrating injury; Meanwhile, #Rams WR Puka Nacua (PCL) could remain on the sidelines until Week 9. pic.x.com/zfiwnngodz
It's RB1 SZN for Jordan Mason according to @MatthewBerryTMR. pic.x.com/uw0alkvpvf
The 49ers gave Brandon Aiyuk and Deebo Samuel all that money and it turns out that Jauan Jennings is better than both of them. Amazing.
The 49ers have used exclusively cornerbacks against Justin Jefferson since the 97-yard calamity, by the way. And rookie Malik Mustapha is now in the game as safety help instead of George Odum
Playing Elijah Mitchell over Jordan Mason the past two years was ridiculous.
Nick Bosa bounces back up after a few moments of concern
That's why Trent Taylor is in the building. I'd expect a practice squad call-up next week
Wouldn't be surprised if Shanahan mandated Charvarius Ward following Jefferson on every snap for the rest of this game after that
@LombardiHimself: The 49ers were covering Justin Jefferson, the best receiver in the game, with 2 safeties. A 99-yard TD is the result they deserved
Jacob Cowing muffed the punt but the 49ers got it back. Oh boy -- this game was on its way to Seattle 2021 vibes really quick. (It might still end up there. We've got over 22 minutes left)
Great angle and pursuit speed from Yetur Gross-Matos in his 49ers debut draws the intentional grounding flag
49ers inactives vs the Vikings: Talanoa Hufanga Darrell Luter Jr. Dee Winters Ben Bartch Josh Dobbs is the emergency 3rd QB No surprises here; all signs had already pointed to Hufanga being back Week 3 at the soonest
lol at the retirement rumors
@Coach_Yac: Trent Williams was asked if he can play until he's 40 years old:
"I know that it can be done, and I want to do it."
?: @NFLonCBS

Vikings rushed only 4 on that third down and the 49ers' front did not hold up. They then also did not hold up on the Mitch Wishnowsky punt
Eric Saubert saved a TD, at least for now, with his diving tackle after the blocked punt
The 49ers called the Vikings about a potential Justin Jefferson trade before draft, but Minnesota had zero interest in moving its standout wide receiver. Now, the 49ers will face Jefferson today. espn.com/nfl/story/_/id...
Sam Darnold today in a win vs. the 49ers: - 17/26 - 268 passing yards - 2 TDs - 1 INT - 109.1 passer rating pic.x.com/qjn9a6zpdg
Ty Chandler out-rushes Aaron Jones 82-32 dlvr.it/TDGsDM
How about Jalen Nailor flying down to get in on the action?
@NFL: JUSTIN JEFFERSON 97 YARD TUDDY!!!!!!!!! https://t.co/0PJs9mheCK
The 49ers defense just allowed a 14-play drive to Minnesota with the game probably on the line and Sam Darnold working without both Justin Jefferson and Jordan Addison. What a shaky game
Brian O'Neill and Christian Darrisaw against Will Anderson and Danielle Hunter. Can we sim to Sunday?
Wasn't a lot of talk about Blake Cashman during camp, in part because of his finger surgery, but what an impact he's made on this game. Nine tackles and now the tip that led to the interception that set up that Vikings touchdown. Getting serious in Minnesota. Vikings lead, 20-7.
Caleb Williams SACKED by Danielle Hunter and Will Anderson Jr.
@NFL_DovKleiman: Caleb Williams to DeAndre Carter for the first down!
https://t.co/3zK5ojonys https://t.co/yQsjt5s2l5
Dallas Turner was walking around in locker room postgame, good sign.
@GriffyPlays458: @alec_lewis Dallas turner update??
Vikings LB Ivan Pace Jr. is making a STATEMENT with his outfit before today's game ? pic.x.com/21w1trcdik
Harrison Smith with one helluva play in coverage. No clue why Kyle Shanahan was in the gun on 4th and 1 averaging 6.8 YPC.
Oh my heavens. Andrew Van Ginkel almost did it again.
Nick Bosa notches a clean win against Christian Darrisaw
Suffice it to say, that wasn't a good third-down rep for Ed Ingram.
Whoaaaaa buddy. C.J. Ham swoops in and blocks punt. That's massive. Vikings must capitalize here.
That's also George Kittle beating a cornerback, Camryn Bynum. Impressive all around
@LombardiHimself: Purdy with protection is really hard to stop
Looked like Brian Asamoah II and Jay Ward both had chances at that fumbled punt. 49ers maintain possession.
It’s not something Viking fans wanted to see, but star wide receiver got tangled up in the third quarter and went down. It appeared center Garrett Bradbury’s leg clipped Jefferson’s leg and the All-Pro receiver took awhile before getting up. Jefferson slowly went to the sideline into the tent. He then went into the locker room on his own two feet.
It was reported Jefferson was ‘Questionable’ to return and he is dealing with a quad injury.
Jordan Addison is inactive during the game against the 49ers due to an ankle injury suffered in last week’s win against the Giants. Minnesota will have to turn to Jalen Nailor, Brandon Powell, and Trent Sherfield for the remainder of the game if Jefferson cannot return
The #Vikings inactives today against the 49ers: --Jordan Addison --Fabian Moreau --Dwight McGlothern --Levi Drake Rodriguez --Jalen Redmond --Walter Rouse
