The following players are listed as day-to-day and aren't expected to face any long-term issues:
- WR Chris Conley (oblique)
- WR Jacob Cowing (shoulder)
- DT Jordan Elliott (knee)
- FB Kyle Juszczyk (shoulder)
- TE George Kittle (ribs)
- LB Fred Warner (ankle)
Warner's inclusion is especially notable, as the linebacker left the game just before halftime and did not return to the field.
"If I could have been out there, I would have been," Warner said post-game. "We'll get more information as we go, with scans and all that, but I feel good right now."
Shanahan expressed relief that none of the injuries were more serious, specifically highlighting Warner's positive report.
"Anything that says 'day-to-day,' just when you don't know that the night before, we always definitely feel better when it says 'day-to-day,'" Shanahan said. "If it's a high-ankle sprain or anything like that, you know that's always some time. I know he's hurting today and stuff, but from the reports and everything, when we say 'day-to-day,' that gives him a chance to heal up this week."
Kalia Davis expected to practice this week
Shanahan also mentioned that the 49ers plan to open the practice window for defensive tackle Kalia Davis, who has been on injured reserve with a knee injury since August 27.
"He is close [to returning]," Shanahan said. "There's a good chance we open his window this week, so I'd be surprised if it's not open for Wednesday's practice."
Davis' return would bolster a 49ers defensive line that recently lost Javon Hargrave for the season after the veteran defensive tackle suffered a partially torn triceps in Week 3.
