49ers DT Alfred Collins is Out for the Season with a Torn Patellar Tendon

Alfred Collins out for the year torn patellar tendon happened yesterday right behind me in practice just awful news for Collins and for the 49ers I mean mostly because they can't replace him for this game they're in Australia they can't physically fly a player out here fast enough maybe if they were maybe if this had happened in Santa Clara they could assign someone at the very last minute before flying out here maybe not I mean this is just sort of the downside of playing on the other side of the world I don't want to be rude but it's not like Collins was having a good off season it's not like he was going to be a big asset week one he was coming off a torn labrum in his shoulder he was just abysmal in preseason and I don't even know if he was going to be able to play before this injury I mean they were going to need him but I don't know if he would have been good he got pushed around by backups in the preseason just a terrible year for him see if he can bounce back patellar tendon injury is really serious I mean that's what the Niners are hoping Nick Bosa doesn't do that's what he's been trying to avoid so who's going to replace Alfred Collins in the starting lineup I mean maybe the rookie out James Thompson Jr. but he's hurt we'll see if he practices today he didn't practice the last two days there's Sebastian Valdez on the on the practice squad there's CJ West who had a bad off season too probably CJ West so no Aaron Donald no Alfred Collins kind of an eye for an eye I'm still picking the Rams but I don't have much confidence with that how do you think this affects the matchup?
