Adam Schefter of the NFL Network is reporting that the word around San Francisco is that Staley will likely start at right tackle and has seemingly won the job from Kwame Harris.
Of course, this is still speculation at this point and the team has not made a formal announcement regarding this.
Matt Maiocco of the Press Democrat had this to say in his blog,
Instant 49ers:
...the team is going to wait until they see how things go Saturday night when Staley and Harris both play against the Bears' No. 1 defense. (However, I'm in agreement that Staley is the favorite at this point.)

Why Trey Lance faces uphill battle to win 49ers' starting job, per Kyle Shanahan
The San Francisco 49ers expect Brock Purdy to be ready to play between early September and early November. That's a significant range considering the 2023 NFL season begins in early September. Head coach Kyle Shanahan, speaking with reporters at the NFL owners' meetings in Arizona, said the team expects its 23-year-old quarterback's recovery from his March 10 surgery to be six to eight months.

"It might be Week 1," Shanahan said. "I think I'm hearing, at the latest, Week 4. But that's just all estimations, and we'll see what
Kyle Shanahan, 49ers will have better idea of Brock Purdy recovery timeline in June
It could be six months. It could be eight months. The San Francisco 49ers don't have a clear picture right now regarding quarterback Brock Purdy's recovery timeline.

Kinlaw enters the fourth year of his contract. According to reports, the 49ers don't plan to exercise the fifth-year option on Kinlaw. General manager John Lynch stated that the team doesn't plan to trade him and that his surgically repaired knee is much improved, per Cam
