San Francisco 49ers offensive lineman Jon Feliciano will begin the season on injured reserve following his recent knee surgery.

Coach Kyle Shanahan provided the update Tuesday for Feliciano, who is listed as the backup to right guard Spencer Burford on the team's depth chart.

Feliciano, 32, started seven of the 16 games he appeared in during his first season with the 49ers in 2023, playing 48 percent of the offensive snaps.

A fourth-round draft pick by the then-Oakland Raiders in 2015, Feliciano has played in 113 games (61 starts) with the Raiders (2015-18), Buffalo Bills (2019-21), New York Giants (2022) and 49ers.
