49ers promote KhaDarel Hodge to active roster after win over Rams

The San Francisco 49ers have promoted wide receiver KhaDarel Hodge to the active roster following their 27-7 victory against the Los Angeles Rams in the season opener in Melbourne. This move comes in response to the injury of rookie receiver De’Zhaun Stribling, who was placed on injured reserve after suffering an ankle injury. Hodge, who logged two tackles in the opener primarily on special teams, adds depth to a receiver group already impacted by injuries, including Mike Evans and Deebo Samuel. The 49ers, who face the Miami Dolphins in their home opener, are aiming to bolster their offensive options.
