49ers WR Mike Evans was ruled out before the start of the third quarter of Sunday’s Week 3 game against the Cardinals with a rib injury, after clutching his right side following a route in the second quarter and riding a cart to the locker room late in the first half. He was not hit on that play but took a helmet to his side on a tackle by Cardinals S Budda Baker on the play before, and it is unclear whether the two are related; the team did not provide the precise nature of the injury or a timeline. All-Pro LT Trent Williams also left on a cart in the third quarter with a stinger, and the 49ers initially listed him as questionable. San Francisco is already without WRs Ricky Pearsall (out for the season), De’Zhaun Stribling (expected to miss roughly 10 weeks) and Demarcus Robinson (injured reserve).
