Receiver and return man Bruce Ellington has been placed on season-ending injured reserve, the 49ers announced Tuesday. They also waived outside linebacker Jason Fanaika to get the roster down to 75 ahead of Tuesday’s deadline.

Ellington suffered a hamstring injury in the third preseason game Friday against the Packers and did not return to the game.

The injury is a significant blow to San Francisco’s offense under first-year coach Chip Kelly, who was using Ellington as a slot receiver throughout training camp and the preseason.

Earlier this week, the 49ers traded former third-round pick Brandon Thomas, an offensive lineman, to the Detroit Lions for receiver and return man Jeremy Kerley.

He averaged 5 yards per carry out of shotgun last season. Just saying

Someone has to get Boldin's 111 targets from last year.

Torrey and Vance should both see healthy bumps this year.
