The 49ers placed Bethune (knee) on injured reserve Saturday, Cam Inman of The San Jose Mercury News reports. Bethune sprained his MCL during the 49ers' Week 11 loss to the Seahawks. Now that he's on IR, Bethune will be forced to miss at least the next four games, and the earliest he could return is Week 16 against the Dolphins on Sunday, Dec. 22.

Bethune (knee) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Packers, Matt Barrows of The Athletic reports. Bethune sprained his MCL in the first quarter of this past Sunday's loss to the Seahawks. He's mostly played on special teams this season, so his absence won't hurt the 49ers' depth on defense that much. Bethune's next opportunity to play will be Week 13 against Buffalo on Sunday, Dec. 1.

Coach Kyle Shanahan said Tuesday that Bethune sustained a sprained MCL during Sunday's game versus the Seahawks and will be out for a while, Eric Branch of the San Francisco Chronicle reports. Bethune was forced out of San Francisco's contest in Week 11 early by a knee injury, and it's now confirmed that it is a somewhat significant issue. He has contributed substantially on special teams so far this season, so the 49ers will have to try to find a way to replace his production in that phase until he's able to return.
