Alvin Kamara left practice with a knee injury.

Kamara walked off with a Dallas trainer, according to other reports. There hasn't been an update for Kamara to this point, but we'll be sure to follow up. Kamara and Etienne are expected form a 1-2 punch at the RB position this season, with Kamara's role likely being reduced.

WR Mike Evans pulled up three-quarters of the way through today's practice with what Kyle Shanahan said was "tightness."

As Barrows added to his post, it doesn't appear to be contract related, referring to Christian McCaffrey also dealing with tightness, and reports saying it was actually a hold-in situation. Barrows said Evans watched the rest of the practice from the sideline. Just like with CMC, there likely won't be much more information, but there will probably be some missed practices in Evans' future.

Jadarian Price returned to full participation in practice Monday for the first time in more than a week. The rookie first-round draft choice went right into the starting offense as the lead running back. He took handoffs and caught passes from quarterback Sam Darnold in the shells-and-helmets practice.

Price had missed the previous five full practices with what coach Mike Macdonald described as a sore upper leg, the story said. The story mentioned Price will be the lead back, but we've seen reports saying it will be more of a committee. However, with Charbonnet still out because of his knee injury, Price's competition is Wilson and Holani. It makes sense to ease Price into a big workload, but with Charbonnet's timeline unknown, it's easy to see a path toward Price being the team's RB1.
