, who is the only fullback on the San Francisco 49ers roster, returned to practice on Wednesday after not practicing for the past two weeks due to a back injury. However, he did so in a blue no-contact jersey. Other players who participated in no-contact jerseys were linebacker Reuben Foster (ribs) and wide receiver Marquise Goodwin (back).
Tackle Trent Brown (concussion), guard Brandon Fusco (biceps), defensive end Aaron Lynch (calf), and cornerback K'Waun Williams (quad) did not practice. Wide receiver Pierre Garçon and defensive end Elvis Dumervil were each given a veteran day off.
Another interesting practice note is that Eric Reid warmed up with the linebackers and not the defensive backs. In an effort to get the best 11 defensive players on the field, the safety was asked to play a hybrid linebacker role on Sunday against the Dallas Cowboys. Jaquiski Tartt played at the strong safety spot during nickel packages.
Below are the official Wednesday practice participation reports for both the 49ers and Eagles, as provided by the 49ers Communications department.

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.
