Jalen Hurd might have endured another devastating injury.
The San Francisco 49ers wideout is undergoing an MRI after suffering what's believed to be a major knee injury in practice Sunday, 国产外流网Network Insider Ian Rapoport and 国产外流网Network's Mike Garafolo reported, per sources informed of the situation.
The fear is that the test will reveal a torn ACL.
If it's indeed a torn ligament in the knee, it's a brutal result for the 2019 third-round pick who missed all of his rookie campaign due to a back injury. In his preseason debut last year, Hurd scored two TDs before suffering the injury. After a few setbacks, he was shut down for the year.
The wideout was cleared for offseason activities in April. The 6-foot-4, athletic receiver was expected to battle for a role as a big slot.
Hurd's injury helps explain the Niners bringing in veteran receiver Jaron Brown for a workout, Garafolo reported. With Deebo Samuel also dealing with a leg injury, the 49ers have been shuffling in wideouts. The team signed Tavon Austin and J.J. Nelson on Friday.
