Only two San Francisco 49ers players were listed on the team's official injury report today. The first is
WR Quinton Patton, who suffered a concussion on Sunday against the Miami Dolphins. Wearing a blue non-contact jersey, he has been limited in practice this week. Patton, who has started every game this season, has 31 receptions for 374 yards this year.
The second player is
OLB Aaron Lynch who is working through a high-ankle sprain that he suffered during Week 7 against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. He has missed eight games this season. The first four were at the start of the season and due to a suspension. Lynch, last season's best pass rusher, has just one sack during his three games played this year.
For the Chicago Bears,
QB Jay Cutler, who was placed on injured reserve this week, is the only player listed as out. Chicago has six players listed as questionable.
Below are the official injury reports for both the 49ers and the Bears, who meet up to play each other on Sunday in Chicago. Also included are Friday's participation reports. The 49ers held a walk through and the report is an estimation of what participation would have been for a full practice.
The team is traveling from Orlando, Florida to Chicago, Illinois today.

Breaking down the 49ers drafts under John Lynch and Kyle Shanahan
We are less than one week away from the NFL Draft, and the San Francisco 49ers have their first day-one draft pick since 2021. That was the year they selected QB Trey Lance number three overall. The trade-up to get Lance cost the 49ers their first-round picks in 2022 and 2023. And now that they are back in the first round, at pick 31, fans are anxious to see what the team does with the pick. And with former assistant GM, Adam Peters, now in Washington, it will be interesting to see how well the 49ers draft without Peters in the room.
We looked back at the seven drafts GM John Lynch and Head Coach Kyle Shanahan have led to see what information we could pull from those drafts. There were plenty of hits, plenty of misses, and a few surprises along the way. The draft picks are
John Lynch wants Brandon Aiyuk to remain with 49ers for rest of career
Rumors have swirled regarding the situation between the San Francisco 49ers and wide receiver Brandon Aiyuk, who is entering his fifth NFL season and is slated to earn $14.124 million on a team-executed fifth-year option. Despite the 49ers publicly declaring a desire to sign Aiyuk to a contract extension, keeping him on the roster for the foreseeable future, many rumors have focused on potential trade interest.
On Monday, general manager John Lynch held his annual pre-draft press conference, addressing the Aiyuk situation without revealing any information on the conversations that have taken place behind closed doors. Once again, he emphasized that the 49ers want Aiyuk to remain with the team for the remainder of his career.

"Thank God for Mr. Irrelevant": John Lynch reflects on 49ers drafting Trey Lance
The decision to trade up in the 2021 NFL Draft and select quarterback Trey Lance could have had significant consequences for general manager John Lynch and head coach Kyle Shanahan. With the team lacking first-round picks in the last two drafts due to this move, and Lance no longer on the roster after being traded to the Dallas Cowboys before last season, it's clear the gamble didn't unfold as expected.
Lynch held his annual pre-draft press conference on Monday, reflecting on the decision to take such a big chance on Lance. While such a bold move might have jeopardized jobs elsewhere, Lynch and Shanahan were blessed with some good fortune in the 2022 NFL Draft.
Acknowledging the support of the team's ownership, Lynch stated, "They believe in Kyle and I, and our
John Lynch on new draft dynamic, 49ers' chances of trading from No. 31
As customary, NFL teams engage in preliminary discussions about potential draft trades during owner meetings. The San Francisco 49ers currently hold the No. 31 spot in the first round but appear receptive to moving either up or down. The 2024 NFL Draft kicks off on Thursday night.
General manager John Lynch addressed reporters on Monday and acknowledged the wide range of possibilities. However, he noted that any potential discussions about trading spots with other teams will likely intensify later in the week.
"It's going to be an interesting year," Lynch stated. "I think it's an interesting draft class. I was just looking at my notes and one interesting thing to me, dynamic, and the way of the world right now, we put a grade on players in the fall if we think
