During his press conference on Monday, 49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan was asked if he had enough players to fill out the 46 active spots for next weekend's game against the New York Giants.

'No, we're going to have to sign some guys. We plan on signing some guys in the next couple of days. I know there working on it right now and in to tomorrow. We're going to have to figure that out before Wednesday," Shanahan told reporters Monday.

Those signings started to take place shortly after Shanahan finished talking to the media.

Wide receiver Louis Murphy and tight end Logan Paulsen were signed to one-year deals, the team announced on Monday evening.

Safety Jaquiski Tartt and tight end Cole Hikutini were placed on injured reserve due to injuries suffered in Sunday's loss to the Cardinals.

X-rays revealed that Tartt fractured his forearm on Sunday, while Hikutini suffered an MCL injury.

The 49ers announced that they have signed offensive lineman Andrew Lauderdale to the practice squad.
