The San Francisco 49ers faced a challenging matchup against the Arizona Cardinals at Levi's Stadium during their Week 3 contest. They lost defensive lineman Gracen Halton and cornerback Renardo Green to injuries. Halton was injured on an extra point following the Cardinals' first touchdown, and specifics regarding Green's injury remain unclear. With several key defenders already sidelined, the team's depth at both defensive line and cornerback continues to diminish as they adapt to the situation during the ongoing game.
