    Well, crap. He was one of the few people we drafted this year who didn’t have any significant injury concerns. That’s a bad start.

  2. West Coast says:

    What did he do to his achilles? Did he rupture is? If so hes done for the year.

    Coach Shanahan said in his press conference after day one that, “his Achilles popped in the offseason conditioning program, and he’s obviously out for the year.”
