The San Francisco 49ers placed wide receiver Christian Kirk on injured reserve after he suffered a meniscus injury in practice, sidelining him for at least four games and leaving his return this season uncertain. The move is Kirk’s second stint on injured reserve this year; he had only recently returned from a training-camp calf injury and went without a target in his season debut. San Francisco also activated Demarcus Robinson from injured reserve and elevated KhaDarel Hodge from the practice squad as the team manages multiple injuries at wide receiver.
