The Bears defense will face a tall order stopping the 49ers offense during Sunday’s season opener, as they have a myriad of offensive playmakers. But it sounds like Chicago might just catch a break due to an injury to a star player.
49ers tight end George Kittle missed Wednesday’s practice with a groin injury. Head coach Kyle Shanahan said Kittle injured his groin during Monday’s practice, and he’s not sure of Kittle’s status for Sunday’s game against the Bears.
