San Francisco rookie receiver De'Zhaun Stribling is slated to be sidelined for a minimum of four weeks after sustaining an ankle deltoid sprain. The former Ole Miss standout was forced out of action during the 49ers' 27-7 triumph against the Los Angeles Rams in Melbourne, Australia.
Head coach Kyle Shanahan confirmed that while the wideout faces extended downtime, he successfully evaded damage to his Achilles tendon.
J. Brown also hurt in his debut for his latest squad.
Despite the setback to their young pass-catcher, the 49ers delivered a comprehensive victory on foreign soil, anchored by linebacker Fred Warner's return and offensive tackle Trent Williams, who held newly acquired Rams pass rusher Myles Garrett without a single statistic.
