What happened
The San Francisco 49ers lost another key contributor Wednesday when they placed defensive tackle C.J. West on injured reserve with a knee injury. West started the first two games of the season after Alfred Collins went down with a season-ending knee injury just before the opener. Niners coach Kyle Shanahan said he expects West will be able to return later this season.
