The 49ers are reeling from a brutal injury crisis just five days into training camp, with their running back corps decimated—Christian McCaffrey’s only healthy backups are Patrick Taylor Jr. and Sincere McCormick, plus newly signed veteran Khalil Herbert, brought in for his health, not his stats. Jordan James, Isaac Guerendo, and rookie Kaelon Black are all sidelined, leaving Herbert as the only proven rotational option with a history of limited production. The injury woes extend beyond the backfield: Ricky Pearsall is out for the season, Christian Kirk’s calf injury threatens his camp debut, and even top draft picks are down. Rumors swirl about a nearby electrical substation possibly contributing to the rash of injuries, with Coach Shanahan hinting at a possible link—forcing the team to consider a risky relocation to protect their roster.
