Both the San Francisco 49ers and the Los Angeles Rams are facing a slew of injuries as they gear up for their Week 3 clash. Tight end George Kittle of the 49ers might be absent from Sunday's game against the Rams due to hamstring tightness, as reported by Adam Schefter of ESPN.com. Kittle's absence would add to the growing list of sidelined players for the 49ers, which already includes running back Christian McCaffrey and receiver Deebo Samuel. With Kittle potentially out, Eric Saubert may be stepping into the starting role to fill the void.

San Francisco's woes are mirrored by the Rams, who are also grappling with multiple injuries of their own. Particularly hard hit on the offensive line and at the receiver position, the Rams are facing their own challenges ahead of the upcoming matchup. Despite the adversity faced by both teams, they are sure to bring their competitive spirit to the field as they look to overcome the obstacles in their path.

The absence of key players like Kittle, McCaffrey, and Samuel will undoubtedly impact the strategies of the 49ers as they prepare to face off against the Rams. In the face of mounting injuries, the depth of both teams will be tested, with backups and substitutes being called upon to step up and deliver strong performances. The upcoming game promises to be a test of resilience for both the 49ers and the Rams as they navigate the hurdles presented by the injury bug.
