49ers-Bears Injury Report: Patton, Lynch listed as questionable
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.

"The more mad Jimmy gets, usually, the better he gets": 49ers' Shanahan and Lynch discuss Garoppolo's future
By David Bonilla
Mar 29, 2021
The San Francisco 49ers shocked the NFL world by pulling off a massive trade moving from the No. 12 overall pick up to No. 3 in next month's NFL Draft. It is clear that the team is targeting a quarterback to—at some point—replace current starter Jimmy Garoppolo. It remains a mystery who that might be.
Up until that point, team brass had verbally committed to Garoppolo being the quarterback in 2021, with the caveat that NFL rosters are always fluid. Garoppolo could very well remain with the 49ers through the upcoming season. That's the impression that head coach Kyle Shanahan and general manager John Lynch gave while speaking with reporters on Monday.
The two tried to keep Garoppolo abreast of the situation leading to the franchise- and draft-altering

The San Francisco 49ers picked up about $11 million in salary-cap space by restructuring the contract of defensive end Dee Ford. It became evident that the veteran defender wasn't going to be medically cleared by this week's deadline, at which point much of his salary becomes guaranteed. Ford was limited to just one game last season as he dealt with neck and back injuries.
General manager John Lynch and head coach Kyle Shanahan spoke virtually with reporters on Monday for nearly 40 minutes. During the conversation, the former provided an update on Ford's recovery without going into too much detail.
"Dee's doing well," Lynch said. "With that type of injury, you don't

Opening comments:
General Manager John Lynch: "Hey everybody. Look, we thought it'd be appropriate to start, there's one thing different here for us. Our first press conference without one [Philadelphia Eagles senior vice president of communications] Bob Lange here with us.

The San Francisco 49ers have signed or re-signed 22 players to one-year deals so far this offseason. They entered the offseason with nearly 40 scheduled free agents and brought back many of the team's priorities, including long-term deals for offensive tackle Trent Williams and fullback Kyle Juszczyk. Others, like defensive backs Jason Verrett, K'Waun Williams, and Jaquiski Tartt, returned on one-year contracts.
That means, as of right now, the 49ers have 25 players scheduled to become free agents next year, with 29 more scheduled to become restricted free agents or exclusive-rights free agents. Like the defensive backs mentioned above, many of them are hoping for a bigger
