. . . for what is ailing the football team. Here we go once again with the trials and tribulations around the 49ers crack(head) medical staff. Yeah, guys play hurt. They want to be out there. They keep quiet about their injuries, but George Kittle is the latest to say he was hurting three weeks before he tore his achilles.

He said he tore ligaments in his left ankle in the week 16 game against Indy and kept playing on it. He said he overcompensated by using his other leg too much. He ended up missing week 17 against the Bears, but here we are with a major star with a major injury. Would it have helped for him to miss the week 18 Philly game? we’ll never know. But still and all, this medical staff has been among the most injured just about every year they’ve been a art of the team.

Maybe it’s time for a change, eh?
