RB Carlos Hyde was just 12 yards shy of his first career 1,000-yard season when, during the fourth quarter against the Los Angeles Rams, he went down with an injury. Hyde was hit by
CB E.J. Gaines following a catch, which caused the 49ers running back to fumble the football.
Following the play, Hyde left for the 49ers locker room to be evaluated. He was walking under his own power, but with a slight limp. Hyde entered the game needing 50 yards to hit the milestone, which he is unlikely to achieve this week.
Hyde was ruled out for the remainder of the game.
Update:
Following the game, Hyde said that he would have an MRI on his knee on Sunday but remained hopeful that he could play next week against the Seattle Seahawks.

Jason Verrett reportedly suffers torn ACL during 49ers-Lions
The San Francisco 49ers were holding onto a commanding 41-17 lead against the Detroit Lions when starting cornerback Jason Verrett went down with an injury. The veteran was grasping at his right knee.
Verrett was able to walk off the field on his own. However, he stopped short of the sideline before grabbing at the knee again and being assisted by the team's training staff.
Verrett left for the locker room after the game resumed but had trouble getting there on his own. He appeared to be tearing up before two trainers came to his assistance to help him get to the locker room. He eventually had to be taken the remainder of the way on a cart and general manager John Lynch was seen with the cornerback, per multiple reports.
Verrett has been plagued with
Jimmy Garoppolo offers honest response to Mark Sanchez's comments during 49ers-Lions broadcast
Trey Lance took four snaps on Sunday against the Detroit Lions. One of those snaps featured the rookie quarterback's only pass and his first touchdown pass — a five-yard strike to wide receiver Trent Sherfield. Lance had replaced starter Jimmy Garoppolo on the drive. Maybe Garoppolo would have added that touchdown to his stats had he remained in the game.
What was the veteran's reaction to seeing his eventual successor throw his first NFL touchdown? Garoppolo was among the first to celebrate with Lance on the sideline after the play.
During the broadcast, Mark Sanchez, one of the FOX announcers calling the game, commented on the potential awkwardness of celebrating your young successor's accomplishment.
"That's not an easy hug to give," Sanchez

Injured San Francisco 49ers linebacker Dre Greenlaw has been fined $5,169 for unsportsmanlike conduct during his pick-six of Detroit Lions quarterback Jared Goff during Week 1, per Ian Rapoport of NFL Network. As the NFL insider notes, that was a brutal play for the 49ers linebacker. Not only was he fined, but he re-tweaked a groin injury that he had been dealing with for weeks.
Greenlaw underwent core-muscle surgery this week and is expected to be out for four to six weeks. Rapoport reports that the procedure was a successful one.
