Hufanga (knee) may start getting eased into practice pending the results of a medical evaluation, Matt Barrows of The Athletic reports.
Coach Kyle Shanahan said late in July that he expected Hufanga to return to football activities within a matter of weeks, and he's getting closer to fulfilling that goal. However, even if he's able to return to the practice field in coming days, Hufanga may still have an uphill battle to be ready for Week 1.
