Summary

Vederian Lowe and Christian Kirk of the San Francisco 49ers exited practice early on July 27. Lowe has been diagnosed with a high-ankle sprain and will miss extended time. Kirk sustained a calf strain, which raises concerns given his history of injuries from previous seasons. Rookie Enrique Cruz Jr. filled in for Lowe during practice. The 49ers will monitor Kirk's condition to determine if he can remain on the roster, as he is under a one-year deal.
