Now, according to a report, Sherman has been diagnosed with a Grade 2 hamstring strain and is expected to miss some time.
Richard Sherman's MRI showed a Grade 2 hamstring strain, per source. So definitely tough for this week and perhaps beyond, though we've seen Sherman play through plenty of things before. https://t.co/MGWSll55o2

San Francisco will host the struggling Atlanta Falcons this weekend. However, after that, the end of the season sure is tough.
SF will take on the Los Angeles Rams and the Seattle Seahawks to end the campaign. Sherman and his stellar defense will obviously be needed for those showdowns.
Lost in excitement of 49ers’ win were the injuries they suffered:

*C Weston Richburg carted off with knee injury.
*DE Dee Ford left game with a hamstring injury.
*CB Richard Sherman left with a hamstring injury.
*CB K’Wayn Williams left with a concussion.
Costly win.
The win in New Orleans was great for the 49ers. Now the team has to figure out what is next after all the injuries. Right now, Sherman's status, along with other key players, is up in the air.
Stay tuned for further updates. The 49ers have one of the best defenses in the league, but injuries sure are hurting them right now.
