Patrick Taylor Jr. was placed on season-ending injured reserve:
Taylor sustained a shoulder dislocation in the 49ers’ 22-19 victory over the Las Vegas Raiders on Saturday, coach Kyle Shanahan said following the game.
Taylor served as a core special-teams player during the 2024 season and appeared in 13 games. He also made one start at running back. On the season, he carried 39 times for 183 yards and a touchdown.
The 49ers expect backup running back Isaac Guerendo to return to action soon after missing a couple of weeks with a shoulder injury, which he sustained during a special-teams drill in training camp.
