So it wasn’t good a sight for the 49ers when Gore jogged off the sideline and into the locker room midway through the first quarter of Monday night’s game against the Cardinals. The 49ers announced Gore has a hip injury and is questionable to return.
Without Gore, little-used Brian Westbrook could be in line for the bulk of the carries for the 49ers. The only other running back on the active roster tonight is Anthony Dixon.
The 49ers offense did show some signs of life without Gore when Troy Smith hit Michael Crabtree for a 38-yard touchdown on the first play of the team’s second possession.
