RB Carlos Hyde has missed two games with a sprained AC joint that he suffered during the third quarter of the team's October 16 loss to the Buffalo Bills. He has been limited in practices for the past two weeks and was
listed as Questionable on Friday's injury report.
According to Adam Schefter of
ESPN, Hyde expects to play on Sunday against the Arizona Cardinals, per sources.
During practices, Hyde has been wearing a blue non-contact jersey to protect his shoulder. How did he feel earlier this week? "A lot better this week than last week," Hyde said on Thursday. "Today I participated in the whole practice. Things went good and things are heading in a good direction. So hopefully things stay on track, nothing takes me off track leading up to Sunday. There's a good chance I will be out there."
Head coach Chip Kelly has stated that Hyde's availability for Sunday's game will be determined by the 49ers medical staff and not the coaches. News that he expects to play might indicate that the information that he is receiving from the team is positive.
We'll find out about 90 minutes prior to kickoff when the official list of inactive players is reported.

Kyle Shanahan feels "really fortunate" with 49ers' QB room
Kyle Shanahan praises his quarterback room every year. Last season, the San Francisco 49ers went through three starting quarterbacks and still made it to the NFC Championship Game. Trey Lance was the Week 1 starter but suffered a season-ending ankle injury during his second game. Eleven weeks later, Jimmy Garoppolo sustained a broken foot.
That opened the door for rookie Brock Purdy to show his coaches and the NFL world that he belonged, despite being the last overall pick in the draft. Purdy guided the 49ers to eight consecutive wins before suffering a severe injury in that NFC title game matchup against the Philadelphia Eagles.
Two of the quarterbacks from last season—Lance and Purdy—remain. Both are just 23 years old. They are joined by Sam
