San Francisco 49ers fullback Kyle Juszczyk sustained a knee injury during the team's 24-14 victory over the Denver Broncos on Sunday. Juszczyk caught a pass from quarterback Brock Purdy and was tackled by Broncos cornerback Jahdae Barron, which caused his right knee to hyperextend backwards. He remained on the field for some time before being assisted off by 49ers trainers. Coach Kyle Shanahan provided an update after the game, indicating that while the full extent of the injury is not yet known, it is believed to be a knee sprain. Shanahan noted that Juszczyk's ACL appears intact, but further evaluation is needed to confirm the diagnosis. Fans will receive a more definitive update on Juszczyk's condition on Monday.
