The 49ers have placed cornerback Chris Davis on injured reserve with a knee injury and filled his roster spot by signing cornerback JaCorey Shepherd. Shepherd was a 2015 sixth-round pick of the Eagles and spent his first season in the NFL on injured reserve with a torn ACL.

Davis, who missed the season opener with a hamstring injury, played just four defensive snaps in the past two games after logging 34 in Weeks 2-3.
