49ers place De'Zhaun Stribling on IR, promote KhaDarel Hodge

The San Francisco 49ers have placed rookie wide receiver De'Zhaun Stribling on injured reserve due to an ankle injury sustained in Week 1 against the Los Angeles Rams. Stribling will be out for at least the next four games, prompting the team to promote KhaDarel Hodge from the practice squad to the active roster. Hodge's experience as a special teams player and his recent elevation make him a key addition as the 49ers prepare for their Week 2 matchup against the Miami Dolphins. The team is expected to provide further updates on Stribling's recovery shortly.
