49ers Pro Bowl LB NaVorro Bowman suffers another season-ending injury

The 49ers announced Monday that linebacker NaVorro Bowman will miss the rest of the season with an Achilles injury suffered in Sunday's 24-17 home loss to the Cowboys.

Bowman went down in the second half without any contact, and immediately grabbed the Achilles area of his foot. He was carted to the locker room, and a day later, tests confirmed that his season is finished.

Bowman, 28, is a three-time Pro Bowler who will try to rebound from a second season-ending injury. He missed all of 2014 after suffering a serious knee injury in the NFC Championship Game against the Seahawks.
