A week after having a playoff game to remember, Tevin Coleman went down on a run during a second-quarter touchdown drive and then had to be carted off in the second quarter of Sunday’s NFC Championship game against the Packers.

Coleman injured his right shoulder after carrying six times for 21 yards. He rushed for 105 yards and two touchdowns in a 27-10 NFC Divisional win over Minnesota, and then spoke days later of being inspired by the plight of his 2-year-old daughter, Nazaneen. She is battling sickle-cell anemia.

The 49ers made it 17-0 a moment after Coleman departed.
