Kyle Shanahan provided several injury updates the day after the San Francisco 49ers lost 30-18 to the Indianapolis Colts. The good news is that cornerback Emmanuel Moseley (back) arrived at the team facility today feeling good and doing well.
Shanahan said the 49ers will be without safety Jaquiski Tartt for a few weeks. He sustained a bone bruise in his knee. That explains why San Francisco
signed safety Tony Jefferson to the practice squad today.
Defensive end Dee Ford and linebacker Azeez Al-Shaair are both in the concussion protocol.
Quarterback Trey Lance is expected to return to practice on Wednesday. However, he will likely be limited. Shanahan added that there are
no plans to move away from Jimmy Garoppolo as the 49ers' starting quarterback.
Shanahan was also asked about
Trent Williams (ankle) and
Javon Kinlaw (knee). Both were inactive for Sunday's game.
"Trent Williams, he's still day-to-day," Shanahan responded. "We're going to see how his ankle reacts. I was surprised we didn't get him [back] last week, which showed that the ankle has responded worse than we anticipated, so I can't make any assumptions this week. I'm hoping to get him [back] but that will be day-to-day with him.
"Kinlaw, no changes. He's still being evaluated with his knee, and hopefully, we can come to a decision this week on what we're going to do."
Shanahan said last week that Kinlaw is a candidate to land on injured reserve, which would force the second-year defensive tackle to miss a minimum of three games.

49ers reportedly sought No. 17 overall pick plus Jaguars player for Brandon Aiyuk
Mia O'Brien, a reporter for Jacksonville radio station 1010XL, was the first to link San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Brandon Aiyuk to the Jacksonville Jaguars last week. A new report from O'Brien sheds light on the asking price for the star wide receiver, who is entering his fifth-year option.
According to O'Brien, the 49ers sought the No. 17 overall pick, plus wide receiver Zay Jones, in exchange for Aiyuk. However, it seems this asking price was deemed too high for the Jaguars, who would have had to part ways with these assets and commit significant money to Aiyuk in the form of a contract

Just hours after news broke that the San Francisco 49ers plan to release defensive tackle Arik Armstead as a salary-cap savings move, Adam Caplan of Pro Football Network revealed that the team has initiated discussions with long-serving fullback Kyle Juszczyk regarding a potential salary reduction.
"The San Francisco 49ers have approached fullback Kyle Juszczyk, an eight-time Pro Bowl (2016-2023) selection and first-team All-Pro last season, for a salary reduction for the 2024 season, a league source said," Caplan wrote. "Both sides have not reached an agreement on this issue, so his
