Bryce Treggs believed to have a torn MCL

WR Bryce Treggs, who had been having a very solid training camp, sustained an MCL tear on Saturday against the Denver Broncos, per Matt Maiocco of
CSN Bay Area. "That's good news," said Maiocco via Twitter earlier tonight. "No surgery (needed) and it's not a season-ender."
That Tweet declaring the injury as a torn MCL was later deleted and replaced with the following one by Maiocco. He now states that the injury is "believed to be an MCL (tear)" and that Treggs will undergo an MRI.
Treggs limped off of the field following a 25-yard catch from rookie
QB Jeff Driskel during the San Francisco 49ers' preseason victory over the Broncos. He had been ruled out for the game following the injury.

Kyle Shanahan, 49ers will have better idea of Brock Purdy recovery timeline in June
It could be six months. It could be eight months. The San Francisco 49ers don't have a clear picture right now regarding quarterback Brock Purdy's recovery timeline. They will have a better idea in June, though. That's when the second-year quarterback will begin throwing again and ramping up his workload for the remaining portion of his rehabilitation.
Purdy underwent surgery to repair the tear of the ulnar collateral ligament (UCL) in his right elbow, an injury suffered on January 29 in the NFC Championship Game against the Philadelphia Eagles.
"He won't be able to do anything on the field for—who knows?" head coach Kyle Shanahan told reporters Tuesday morning from the NFL owners'
Expect 49ers Javon Kinlaw to Have a Breakout Year
The San Francisco 49ers drafted Javon Kinlaw with the 14th overall pick in 2020. Since being drafted, Kinlaw has only participated in 858 snaps. His career totals are as follows: 29 pressures, 1.5 sacks, four hits, and 22 hurries. Kinlaw produced a total of two batted-down passes, 45 total tackles, and one interception for a touchdown. For a first-round defensive tackle, these numbers aren't eye-popping.
Kinlaw enters the fourth year of his contract. According to reports, the 49ers don't plan to exercise the fifth-year option on Kinlaw. General manager John Lynch stated that the team doesn't plan to trade him and that his surgically repaired knee is much improved,
Carr: Sam Darnold might have more ability than Brock Purdy, could be 49ers' Week 1 starter
On Tuesday, NFL insider Ian Rapport, one of the NFL's most plugged-in reporters, made headlines declaring that, given the situation with the San Francisco 49ers, Sam Darnold would be the team's most likely Week 1 starting quarterback.
"We do not know what Trey Lance is going to be if he continues the trajectory that he's been on," Ian Rapoport said on NFL Network. "And I think, certainly, it seems Sam Darnold will more likely than not be the starter going into the season, but there is an opportunity for someone to step in there and start [the] first couple of games of the regular season for the 49ers."
Lance, the No. 3 overall draft pick in 2021, and Darnold, added
