San Francisco 49ers Injury News:
WR Chris Conley (shoulder): Conley was hurt making a diving, 34-yard catch Friday night. He left the game just before halftime and never returned. Shanahan said Conley has an AC sprain in his shoulder and will miss a few weeks. He isn’t liable to make the 53-man roster, but he’s a practice squad candidate who will miss some time.

K Zane Gonzalez (calf): Friday’s game took an odd turn for the 49ers when Gonzalez hurt his calf in pregame warmups. With rookie K Jake Moody already out with a quad injury, San Francisco had no available kickers. Gonzalez will miss a few weeks according to Shanahan. It’s unclear how the team will handle its 53-man roster decisions at kicker, but missing a few weeks won’t help Gonzalez’s case.

Kyle Shanahan on Jake Moody:
“I've never been in this situation before where we have two really good kickers in our camp, and a few days before the final 53, both kickers aren't available at this time," Shanahan said. "So I think these next couple of days are real important just for us to see how the rehab is going and things like that, and then trying to guess where it's going to be two weeks from now when we kick off.”

S Tayler Hawkins (hand): Hawkins was a long shot to make the 49ers’ 53-man roster, but a broken hand that will require surgery will surely keep him from sticking around. A timeline for his return is unknown. His season is over if he goes on IR before final cuts. The team could also let him go and re-sign him to the practice squad, but how they operate on that front will be dependent on how long the injury is expected to keep him out.
TE Cameron Latu (knee)
Latu suffered a meniscus injury against the Chargers
RB Jordan Mason (foot)
He did suffer a sprained foot in Friday’s game
CB AJ Parker (hamstring)
Safety Talanoa Hufanga has a fluid-filled cyst behind his knee, causing some tightness. He did not play against the Chargers. However, the safety is not expected to miss much more time and could be fine to practice in the coming days.
Said Shanahan: "He's been resting these four days, and he should be good to go real soon."
Like Hufanga, running back Elijah Mitchell did not play in Friday's game.
"Elijah, his abductor has been tight," Shanahan said. "No pulls or anything, but it was tight, so we didn't want to push him, especially with his history."
