SANTA CLARA
Adidas Will Butcher Jersey , Calif. (AP) The goal for Kyle Shanahan during the remaining seven games of this season is identifying players to keep around
through a franchise-wide rebuilding project.
He’ll certainly find out who can handle adversity. The 49ers fell to 0-9 on Sunday with their 20-10 loss to the Arizona Cardinals, extending the team’s
worst start in franchise history. The Browns are the league’s only other winless
team.
”There’s not a doubt in my mind we’ll get through this,” Shanahan said Monday. ”It’s when you get through it, are you going to be better from it or
worse? And I know I’ll be better and I expect our team will be
better.”

general manager John Lynch began building a foundation of continuity after three
coaches were fired the previous three seasons.
But things have been made worse by a slew of injuries to key players. The 49ers on Sunday were without top offensive lineman Joe Staley and their leading
receiver Pierre Gar??n

Solomon Thomas, free safety Jimmie Ward (injured reserve) and 2015 first-round
pick Arik Armstead.
Making things worse, promising third-year safety Jaquiski Tartt is expected to go on injured reserve after fracturing his arm in the first half against
Arizona.
The 49ers went into the game with 15 players on injured reserve and are expected to add three more this week: Tartt, tight end Cole Hikutini (knee) and
tackle Garry Gilliam (knee).
The injuries mean Shanahan will have to rely on reserves for his first win as a head coach. San Francisco has one of its most winnable games coming
up

”It takes mentally strong people, because right now you can sit there and look for every excuse in the world and people will try to give it to you. But
that doesn’t matter,” Shanahan said. ”Your record is what it is at the end of
the year. And you got to do everything you can fight to improve at and make sure
that you’re getting better and not worse. And I know we got a huge challenge
ahead of us right now. I know it’s gotten tougher with injuries. That doesn’t
mean we can’t get better from it.”
NOTES: Shanahan said the 49ers will be without TE George Kittle (ankle), WR Trent Taylor (broken rib) and LB Elijah Lee Sunday against the Giants. … WR
