The only other time he has shown up on the reports is following a Week 7 loss to Seattle when he suffered a thumb injury.

After a night to review a ghastly defensive effort, Coach Jim Tomsula said the 49ers tackling problems against the Seattle Seahawks stemmed from a tentative style. He got himself out of a few things. It was believed that under Warner’s tutelage, Kaepernick would learn to rely less on his legs and more on his arm and brain to make plays.
The San Francisco 49ers have placed Colin Kaepernick on their Injured Reserve list, ending his year and more than likely his career in a 49ers uniform.
General manager Trent Baalke said Sunday that the 49ers trainers looked at Kaepernick’s shoulder after the Packers game, and that after he reported persisting pain in it last Monday, that’s when they sent him to get an MRI, which revealed the torn labrum.
According to National Football League media, the 49ers will explore trade options for Kaepernick after the season as they did before the trade deadline November 3. “For me, where we stand right now, I wouldn’t read too much into that right now”, Baalke said.
“I think when you’re the starting quarterback, the leadership part is there, regardless if you’re a starter for one week, two weeks, three weeks”, Gabbert said.
But while Gabbert kept marching the 49ers down field, he couldn’t get the 49ers into the end zone in the second half, despite several trips into the Red Zone. Former Clemson punter Bradley Pinion is also on the 49ers.
Phil Dawson, team MVP. When it’s in their best interest to have surgery, we support that. “Touchdowns change the game”.
Baalke disputed a report that the timing of the surgery was Kaepernick’s decision so that he could be as healthy as possible when he could be a free agent this offseason.
– Erik Pears allowed both sacks of Gabbert, and Cliff Avril accounted for both of them, including a third-down sack with 5:45 remaining.
“Blaine’s very smart”, guard Alex Boone said. He knows that, hey, sometimes I’m going to have to take this hit. That’s what I thought.

49ers park Tank – Tank Carradine, who didn’t play any snaps against the Falcons, was inactive for the first time Sunday. Even though Kelly might dispute this, or shoot the notion down with coach jargon, the mindset is that a mobile quarterback, that can be a threat to run and make plays on the move, is the ideal leader for this offense.
