San Francisco 49ers cornerback
Ambry Thomas entered the medical tent late in the fourth quarter of the team's dominant 30-7 Week 1 win over the Pittsburgh Steelers. Head coach Kyle Shanahan provided injury updates after the game.
Thomas ended up being fine. The cornerback was examined for a potential concussion but cleared to return. The game was over by then, though, so there was no need.
That means the 1-0 49ers exited their season opener relatively injury-free, and are healthy heading into their second consecutive road game, a September 17 matchup against the Los Angeles Rams at SoFi Stadium. I write "relatively" because sometimes other injuries reveal themselves the next day.
Shanahan will provide another injury update to reporters on Monday.

49ers injury news: Deebo Samuel avoids serious injury, other updates from Kyle Shanahan
San Francisco 49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan jumped on a conference call with reporters on Friday afternoon, the day after the team's 30-12 win over the New York Giants. Shanahan provided several injury updates.
Linebackers Demetrius Flannigan-Fowles and Dre Greenlaw emerged from Thursday night's game with low-ankle sprains. Both are day-to-day. The good news is that players have some extra time off before returning to work on Monday, when the 49ers begin preparing for the Arizona Cardinals.
The only other player who was banged up in the Week 3 contest is wide receiver Deebo Samuel. The 49ers initially feared a rib injury, but

49ers vs. Giants Injury Report: Brandon Aiyuk, Ambry Thomas limited in light Tuesday practices
The San Francisco 49ers are preparing for their Week 3 contest against the New York Giants on Thursday at Levi's Stadium in Santa Clara, California.
The team did not hold a full practice, instead opting to have players participate in two walkthroughs due to the short week.
Wide receiver Brandon Aiyuk is still dealing with the shoulder injury sustained on his first catch against the Los Angeles Rams this past weekend. Cornerback Ambry Thomas is working through a knee injury. Both players were listed as limited participants on Tuesday.
Will the receiver be a game-time decision? What does the 49ers head coach need to know before deciding whether Aiyuk plays against the Giants?
