Chiefs’ hot start assures 49ers another second-round pick

49ers Mailbag: How will Manningham, Crabtree change offense?

It will be interesting to see how the 49ers’ offense adapts with Colin Kaepernick at the controls. That’s because Kaepernick has never really distributed the ball to a second wide receiver. Last year, he locked onto Michael Crabtree. And through…

Could today’s game be Asomugha’s last on 49ers’ roster?

Practice report: Whitner not 100 percent after practice at new site

Safety Donte Whitner says the “small sprain” to his knee won’t keep him out of Sunday’s game, but he also won’t be 100 percent. He didn’t have to risk re-injuring it on a muddy practice field Friday, at least. The…

Practice field concerns LB Willis; 49ers moving Friday to rugby stadium

49ers’ Tomsula back to where it all began

London-native Okoye convinced he can grow right along with the NFL

49ers’ defensive line, Titans’ run game both hurting

WR Crabtree spotted running sprints, jumping off both feet; Brooks, Baldwin, Dorsey miss practice
