SANTA CLARA, Calif. -- The 49ers will be without safety Eric Reid for the remainder of the season after having surgery to repair a biceps injury Tuesday.Losing him is a big loss for our defense, defensive coordinator Jim ONeil said. (Reids) leadership ability, his versatility, his playmaking ability will leave us with an obvious void, but itll be a great opportunity for some other guys to step up and fill those roles.Reid was one of San Franciscos most talented defenders. The 2013 first-round pick lines up at inside and outside linebacker, has covered tight ends and played both safety positions. He ranks second on the team with 62 tackles behind fellow safety Antoine Bethea (66).Reid, a leader in the locker room, joins key defenders NaVorro Bowman (Achilles tear) and Arik Armstead (shoulder surgery) as out of the lineup while the defense ranks at the bottom of the NFL in both yardage and scoring.Were not getting a lot of get well soon cards from the rest of the teams in the NFL, but thats what this leagues about, ONeil said.Second-year safety Jaquiski Tartt will be called on to replace Reid. Its a familiar scenario for the second-round pick from Samford, who replaced Bethea in the final eight games of 2015 after the veteran had a season-ending pectoral injury.Tartt played well as a rookie in Betheas place, making 34 tackles with a sack and an interception. Hes played roughly 30 percent of the defensive snaps in 2016 and is ready to see an increase.Hes got great range and ball skills. Hes got a knack for reading the quarterback, ONeil said. Hes played a lot of football for us this year and he filled in and did a great job last year when Antoine Bethea went out. Hes a good football player.The 49ers will try to avoid setting a franchise record with 10 consecutive losses Sunday when they travel to play the Dolphins, who have won five straight.To me, it doesnt feel like were (1-9) right now, Tartt said. I feel like weve stuck with a lot of teams this year and the ball just bounced another way.Colin Kaepernick is looking to win his first start of the season after taking over for Blaine Gabbert.There is that feeling out there that were not going to be in the playoffs, but we still have an opportunity to do some good things and build on for next year, Kaepernick said.In his first two starts, Kaepernick completed just 46 percent of his passes. But in the three games since the bye, Kaepernick completed 58 percent with five touchdown passes and one interception for a passer rating of 96.9. He has rushed for a career-high 43.3 yards per game.You really try to be a well-rounded player, Kaepernick said. For me, thats something I try to stay focused on, being able to balance staying in the pocket, my ability to run and utilizing both of those when necessary.---For more NFL coverage: http://www.pro32.ap.org and http://www.twitter.com/AP-NFLAuthentic Custom Nuggets Jersey .

Its the third straight race that Rosberg has been the runner-up behind Hamilton.Is Rosberg frustrated? Not likely.If he finishes second again to Hamilton in the season finale on Nov. 27 in Abu Dhabi -- or even third -it will be enough to bring him his first drivers title.I can live with second today, Rosberg said, ceding the stage again to the Englishman, whose victory was his first in Brazil after failing in nine other attempts. I was hoping for the win, but second is OK.The German, whose father Keke Rosberg won the title 34 years ago, still leads the overall season standings with 367 points to 355 for Hamilton.Drivers get 25 points for a victory, 18 for second, 15 for third, and 12 for fourth. The awards go all the way to 1 point for 10th place.Sundays race was stopped twice by crashes in driving rain during the first 28 of 71 laps. All but a half-dozen of the early laps were run behind a safety car with drivers struggling to see through tire spray and struggling to avoid hydroplaning in standing water.The second half was less eventful, but still was slowed by another crash and another spell under the safety car.Hamilton, the three-time series champion, said it looked tougher than it actually was.This was one of the easier ones, he said of his victory.Hamilton said he was in the zone for the entire race, despite the stops and starts.I was chilling up front, Hamilton said. When it rains, its usually a good day for me.Im hunting, he added. All I can do is what Im doing now. Abu Dhabi is usually a good track for me.The victory was the 52nd of Hamiltons career, pushing him to No. 2 ahead of Alain Prost with 51. Michael Schumacher leads with 91.The race was run behind a safety car for the first seven laps with raining pounding down and drivers trying to navigate through spray and puddles.It didnt take long for prooblems to arise as soon as the safety car pulled off.dddddddddddd.On the 13th lap Marcus Ericsson of Sauber went into a spin and crashed, forcing the safety car to come out again.The safety car stayed on until the 20th lap. But just seconds after it pulled off and racing resumed, Kimi Raikkonen of Ferrari lost control in a spin. This time the race was stopped under a red flag.Ferrari driver Sebastian Vettel, talking on his radio, said conditions were too dangerous. He suggested the crashes could have been worse under the treacherous conditions.We need to stop the race, he said. It doesnt work. How many people do you want to crash?Hamilton led through the first 20 laps, followed by Rosberg, Max Verstappen of Red Bull, which was the final finish.The race resumed after a 30-minute delay. But again it didnt last long. After eight laps, officials stopped the race under a red flag, seeming to anger Hamilton.Its not even that wet now, he said on the radio, adding these were normal wet conditions.Brazilian fans seemed to agree, with thousands in the stands giving the thumbs-down sign as the race was stopped again.The race resumed after another 20-minute stoppage, which Rosberg said he filled by eating some spaghetti.Compared to the first third, the second two-thirds was tense but smoother as the rain kept coming.The safety car appeared for the final time on the 48th lap in a crash by hometown hero Felipe Massa.Massa, who is leaving F1 at the end of the season, walked off the track with a Brazilian flag wrapped around his shoulders in his final race at home.Im leaving with my head up and my heart aching, Massa said afterward in the paddock, in tears and embraced by wife Anna Raffaela and young son Felipinho.---Stephen Wade on Twitter: http://twitter.com/StephenWadeAP .
