San Francisco 49ers' safety George Odum has been ruled out for the rest of the season due to a torn bicep injury sustained during the game against Seattle. Head coach Kyle Shanahan confirmed the injury, expressing concerns about the impact on the team's special teams coverage unit. The 49ers are now facing a shortage of safeties and need to make additions to the team. Odum's absence is a significant blow to the 49ers, especially considering the recent loss of another safety, Talanoa Hufanga.
So among those not recognized on senior day was OL Emmit Bohle, who broke his leg the second game of the season. Can apply for medical redshirt and told me earlier this season he would hat for his career to end with that injury
#49ers S George Odum did indeed tear his biceps last night against Seattle. And he’s likely to miss the rest of the season. That’s a big blow for a special teams coverage unit that has had some issues this season.
49ers confirm that S and special teams ace George Odum tore his biceps last night. He has a very small chance of returning this season. Team needs to add at least one S after losing Talanoa Hufanga, Odum in back-to-back games.

#49ers fear that S/special teams ace George Odum suffered a torn bicep, which could be/is likely a season-ending injury. Niners lose two safeties in as many games. Will have to make some additions there next week.
