## Summary

The San Francisco 49ers beat the Las Vegas Raiders 38-17, but rookie defensive tackle Gracen Halton suffered an ankle injury and will miss the rest of the season, according to head coach Kyle Shanahan. His teammates gathered around him on the field before he was taken off, reflecting the close bonds he has built in the locker room.

Halton was carted off in the final minutes, and an air cast was placed on his ankle. Linebacker Fred Warner removed his helmet to hug him before he left. His absence adds to San Francisco’s injury problems: the team also played without wide receivers Mike Evans, Deebo Samuel and Christian Kirk, despite having strengthened its defensive line with DeForest Buckner.
