The Facts:
Gore's broken right hand, although not a big deal as far as injuries go, probably will keep the running back out of the 49ers' first three exhibition games. "I'd like to see him at least in the last week," HC Mike Nolan said. "I don't want to downgrade the importance of the preseason. It's important. It's to get your timing down. You have to get the feel of things."

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
As
previously noted, Gore broke a bone in the hand in a non-contact drill Monday morning. He will have a cast put on the hand this coming Monday to allow him to practice. He will not practice until then (although his conditioning work continues). In his stead, the 49ers will take a long look at Maurice Hicks, Michael Robinson and rookie Thomas Clayton. The club will probably keep two of three once final cuts are made.
