The San Francisco 49ers are preparing for their Super Bowl contest against the Kansas City Chiefs on Sunday, February 11, at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas, Nevada.
Tight end George Kittle was sidelined during practice due to a toe injury. Although Kyle Shanahan did not disclose specific details about the injury, the head coach did not express significant concern.
Defensive tackle Arik Armstead is the only other player who missed practice due to injury. He continues to work through his foot and knee issues. Ahead of practice, Shanahan did not mention the plan to sideline Armstead.
Linebacker Oren Burks and cornerback Ambry Thomas were limited participants in practice. Burks is managing a shoulder injury, while Thomas is working through an ankle issue.
In general, there are not many injury concerns as the 49ers head into their Super Bowl matchup.
