Owens (hand) reverted to the 49ers' injured reserve list Thursday after going unclaimed while on waivers, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
Owens was waived with an injury designation Wednesday due to a hand fracture, which Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports will require a 5-to-7 week recovery timetable. Unless he can reach an injury settlement with San Francisco, though, Owens will need to spend the entire 2024 season on IR.
