Bryce Huff’s all set for the Rams — meanwhile, the 49ers’ injury list reads like a warning sign.QQ
Injuries continue to pile up for the San Francisco 49ers, particularly on the defensive end, just as they prepare to face the powerful Los Angeles Rams offense on Sunday. Among the injuries added this week, one key player is now available to face the Rams: Bryce Huff . He has recovered from his hamstring injury and returns after missing the last two games.
However, the injury list is long. To begin with, the 49ers have already ruled Ricky Pearsall out of Sunday’s game due to injury . The wide receiver is out of the game against the Rams because of his knee injury. Then there are seven players whose availability is still uncertain due to their respective injuries. They are officially listed as questionable on the report:
- G Ben Bartch (ankle)
- LB Tatum Bethune (muslo)
- DT Alfred Collins (cadera)
- DT Kalia Davis (ankle)
- QB Brock Purdy (toe)
- DE Keion White (ingle)
- LB Dee Winters (cuestionable)
Four starting defenders plus Collins, who is an important part of the rotation on a defensive line that has been hit with too many injuries this year.
In the case of the quarterback, 49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan said that Mac Jones will start . Purdy is still not 100% recovered and only managed limited practice all week, but being listed as questionable for the second consecutive week, he has a chance to at least be active on game day since he has been on the inactive list for each of the last two games since playing against the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 4. Shanahan added that Purdy is “improving” each week.
A Look at the Opponent
The Rams have a great team and also have the huge advantage over the 49ers of having a virtually healthy roster. In fact, the only player listed on the Rams’ injury report for the game against the 49ers is wide receiver Jordan Whittington. He is questionable for Sunday’s game due to a back issue.
Don’t forget that this Sunday you can listen to the 49ers vs. Rams game in Spanish at 49ers.com/esp, on W Radio, W Deportes, and on the official 49ers app. The game starts at 1:25 pm Pacific Time, 3:25 pm Mexico City Time.
