San Francisco lost Pro Bowl guard Laken Tomlinson, who signed with the New York Jets during free agency. Tackle Mike McGlinchey is coming off a torn quad injury.
"He had a significant surgery to repair that quad tendon," Lynch said earlier this month of McGlinchey. "But just as Mike has always done, he attacks everything 100 percent, and his rehab is going really well."
