San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Brandon Aiyuk had to be carted to the locker room during the 49ers' Week 7 game against the Kansas City Chiefs.

The wideout had made his second catch of the game — a 15-yard reception — in the second quarter when Kansas City cornerback Trent McDuffie began tackling him. Moments later, fellow defender Chamarri Conner came in to finish the tackle with a punch to the lower body.

During the match, Conner's contact appeared to bend Aiyuk's right knee in the wrong direction. The receiver remained there for a few moments and was attended to by medical staff.

Update on Brandon Aiyuk's injury

Aiyuk received a low hit to his right leg from Conner, a Chiefs safety, after making a catch in the second quarter.

In the Fox broadcast of the 49ers vs. Chiefs, Aiyuk was seen limping on the sideline as he made his way to the blue medical tent after the hit, unable to put much weight on the injured leg. Moments later, Aiyuk emerged from the tent and had to be carried to the locker room.

ESPN's Adam Schefter reported that Aiyuk pointed to his right knee on the cart.

The 49ers ruled their wide receiver out of the game within 20 minutes of his injury.
