49ers blast Jets 31-13, but lose Garoppolo, Bosa, Mostert

The injury carts rolled out twice in three plays and the 49ers lost a few more key players. Raheem Mostert ran for an 80-yard touchdown on San Francisco’s first play from scrimmage and Jimmy Garoppolo threw two TD passes – before both players sat out the second half with injuries – to lead the banged-up 49ers to a 31-13 victory Sunday. It was a costly victory for San Francisco, which was already hurting in a big way before losing Garoppolo to a high ankle sprain and Mostert to an injured knee.
