Jordan Elliott Injury: Nursing back injury

San Francisco head coach Kyle Shanahan said Sunday that Elliott (back) is dealing with injury, Matt Barrows of The Athletic reports.

Elliott will work to get healthy in time to participate in joint practices with the Raiders this week, and ahead of the 49ers' preseason clash against Las Vegas on Saturday, Aug. 16. He projects to kick off the regular season as a regular contributor at defensive tackle, health permitting.
