The 49ers are preparing to face the Detroit Lions in their home finale on Monday night football, and we know that they’ll be without 4 players, while another 4 are questionable.<\/p>\n
Out:<\/strong><\/p>\n LG Aaron Banks (Knee)<\/p>\n LG Spencer Burford (Calf)<\/p>\n DE Robert Beal Jr. (Ankle)<\/p>\n WLB Dre Greenlaw (Calf)<\/p>\n Questionable:<\/strong><\/p>\n RT Colton McKivitz (Knee)<\/p>\n SLB Tatum Bethune (Knee)<\/p>\n CB Charvarius Ward (Personal)<\/p>\n FS Ji’Ayir Brown (Ankle)<\/p>\n We already knew the 49ers would be without Banks, and likely Burford, so the 49ers will likely dress Jake Brendel, Nick Zakelj, Matt Hennessy, Dominick Puni, Charlie Heck, & Austen Pleasants, while elevating right tackle\/left tackle Sebastian Gutierrez for this game, especially if McKivitz isn’t able to go, but they’ll need to make some roster move, likely placing Banks and\/or Burford on injured reserve, while adding possibly Gutierrez, and center Drake Nugent to the 53-man roster.<\/p>\n With Beal out, don’t expect the 49ers to elevate either defensive ends Alex Barrett or Jonathan Garvin, as they have 4 other healthy edge rushers, Nick Bosa, Leonard Floyd, Yetur Gross-Matos, & Sam Okuyianinu on the 53-man roster.<\/p>\n With Greenlaw out, and Bethune questionable, the 49ers only have Fred Warner, Dee Winters, Demetrius Flannigan-Fowles, & Jalen Graham healthy at linebacker on the 53-man roster, so they could elevate either weakside linebacker Chandler Wooten, or stronside linebacker DaShaun White.<\/p>\n Even if Ward doesn’t play, there’s no need to elevate cornerback Chase Lucas, as the team has Deommodore Lenoir, Renardo Green, Isaac Yiadom, Nick McCloud, & Rock Ya-Sin healthy on the 53-man roster, while the team would likely go with just 3 safeties, Talanoa Hufanga, Malik Mustapha, & Tashaun Gipson Sr., as they can’t elevate free safety\/strong safety Jaylen Mahoney again, unless the team just outright signs him ton the 53-man roster.<\/p>\n So, honestly I don’t know what the 49ers roster moves will look like c0me 1pm pacific\/4pm eastern on Monday, but there will be a good amount of roster moves, that’s for sure.<\/p>\n With that said, I thank you for reading, and follow me on X\/Twitter\u00a0@49erscap<\/strong><\/a>, <\/strong>& on Blue Sky App @49erscap.bsky.social<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The 49ers are preparing to face the Detroit Lions in their home finale on Monday…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":13468,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"om_disable_all_campaigns":false,"_exactmetrics_skip_tracking":false,"_exactmetrics_sitenote_active":false,"_exactmetrics_sitenote_note":"","_exactmetrics_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[4,138,110,3,114],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-36126","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-exclusive","category-injury-news","category-player","category-roster","category-team-news"],"acf":[],"aioseo_notices":[],"views":36,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/49erscap.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/36126","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/49erscap.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/49erscap.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/49erscap.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/49erscap.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=36126"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/49erscap.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/36126\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":36133,"href":"https:\/\/49erscap.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/36126\/revisions\/36133"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/49erscap.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/13468"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/49erscap.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=36126"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/49erscap.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=36126"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/49erscap.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=36126"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
