The San Francisco 49ers have opted for a cautious approach at this season's trade deadline, acquiring only backup defensive tackle Khalil Davis. Coach Kyle Shanahan emphasized the importance of weighing risks and not making impulsive moves.
Despite minor additions, the team's hopes rest on the return of injured players, particularly star running back Christian McCaffrey, who is expected to play this Sunday. The 49ers aim to improve their performance as they navigate a challenging season.
Cornerback Charvarius Ward is currently away from the team due to a personal tragedy, and his return remains uncertain.
