San Francisco 49ers head coach Jim Tomsula spoke to the media today. As far as injuries go,
LG Alex Boone, who was injured on Sunday against the Cleveland Browns, is having an MRI today. He confirmed that
RB Kendall Gaskins did indeed suffer a concussion and is going through the concussion protocol this week.
WR Torrey Smith is being treated for the back spasms that kept bringing him out of Sunday's game.
DB Jimmie Ward suffered an elbow contusion and not a break.
Many of the questions focused around player comments following the game. Tomsula disagreed with
LT Joe Staley and his comments that the team may have overlooked the Browns. "Maybe he was speaking from a personal note. I don't know," said Tomsula. "Number one, we have no right to overlook anyone. Number two, in the NFL, I don't care if you are 14-0, you better not overlook anyone."
"We didn't execute. I didn't see an effort problem," said Tomsula regarding the loss on Sunday.
Tomsula confirmed that his coaching staff would not change for the team's final three games.
When asked if there were younger guys that the team would like to take a look at, Tomsula said, "No. I think you've seen us working everybody all year."
The 49ers run defense was atrocious during Sunday's loss. Tomsula feels that the defensive mistakes are correctable.

Rapoport: 49ers send clear message to teams inquiring about Brandon Aiyuk
Ian Rapoport didn't offer much of an update on the ongoing contract negotiations between the San Francisco 49ers and their standout wide receiver, Brandon Aiyuk. However, the NFL insider emphasized one thing: The team is not entertaining trade discussions at this juncture.

Wide receiver Deebo Samuel similarly took this action in 2022 before requesting to be traded just before the draft.
Things have yet to escalate that far with Aiyuk, but Rapoport sees his
