The San Francisco 49ers' defensive front has suffered another key loss. According to head coach Kyle Shanahan, defensive tackle Maurice Hurst will likely miss the entire season due to torn biceps. Hurst suffered the injury during Friday's practice. According to Shanahan, the injury occurred when Hurst reached out trying to grab an offensive player. Losing Hurst for the season could prove to be a major blow to this 49ers' defense. At the moment, they are also expected to be without veteran defensive tackle Arik Armstead and defensive tackle Hassan Ridgeway for a period of time.
