The San Francisco 49ers will place C Daniel Kilgore on the reserve/PUP list. This move will make him ineligible for first six weeks of season.
Kilgore will be available following the team's game against the Baltimore Ravens and prior to their matchup against the division rival Seattle Sehawks.
Kilgore was the starter last season and played well for the 49ers before suffering a fractured left leg during week 7. He had a follow-up surgery in June and started training camp on the PUP list.
Because he did not practice with the team during training camp, he was eligible to start the season on the PUP list.
The move counts as a roster exemption as the
team makes moves to get the roster down to 75 players from 89.

The San Francisco 49ers have announced that running back Jeff Wilson Jr. has been placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list. He joins wide receiver Richie James Jr., who was placed on the list on Monday.
Wilson was among the players who reported for COVID-19 testing on Tuesday.
The reserve/COVID-19 list has been created for a player who either tests positive for COVID-19 or has been quarantined after having been in close contact with an infected person or persons. If a player falls into either of these categories, his club is required to immediately place the player on the reserve/COVID-19 list.
Clubs are not permitted to comment on a player's medical status other than referring to the roster status and may not disclose whether the player is in quarantine

Whether it be the job you hate, the relationship you're stuck in or the general emptiness of your bank account, we collectively turn to entertainment as a way to escape unpleasant situations and engross ourselves with ones that bring us a much needed distraction. In 2020, now more than ever, we, as a nation, need that beautiful distraction known as the National Football League. Four of the five most watched television programs in the US last year were NFL games. We need football, badly.
Shortly after 49ers fans suffered a heart-wrenching loss in Super Bowl 54, the country would be hit with the tidal wave that is COVID-19. In March 2020, the country shut
