Placed on IR The 49ers placed Thomas (knee) on injured reserve Wednesday.
Impact Thomas joins fellow starting defensive lineman Nick Bosa (knee) on injured reserve with a season-ending injury. The 2017 first-round pick will undergo surgery in the near future, and barring any setbacks in his recovery he should be on track for 2021 without issue. The 49ers signed Ezekiel Ansah to a one-year deal and promoted Dion Jordan to the active roster in corresponding moves.

Solomon Thomas has a torn ACL and the 49ers are broken Solomon Thomas is the latest 49er to suffer a knee injury. If you're a member of the San Francisco 49ers, it's definitely time to invest in...

Torn ACL confirmed Thomas suffered a torn ACL in Sunday's win over the Jets, Matt Barrows of The Athletic reports.
Impact The tests results came back as most feared they would and now Thomas will miss the remainder of the 2020 season. An absolutely devastating day for the 49ers' defensive line, losing both Thomas and Nick Bosa (knee) for the season. Before going down, Thomas recorded two tackles across 49 defensive snaps on the year. Look for 2020 first-round selection Javon Kinlaw to see an even higher snap count as the season progresses with Thomas out. Reserves Kentavius Street and Kevin Givens could also see more reps as a result.

May have injured ACL The 49ers believe Thomas may have sustained an ACL injury during Sunday's win over the Jets, Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
Impact Maiocco stopped short of saying Thomas tore his ACL, but the team will likely run an MRI to see the extent of the damage. With Nick Bosa expected to be done for the year with a torn ACL, Thomas' potential season-ending injury is another hit to team's defensive line.
