Los Angeles Rams running back Todd Gurley was listed on Friday as doubtful for Sunday's game against the San Francisco 49ers. It turns out, he will not play, according to Lindsey Thiry of ESPN.
Gurley suffered a thigh contusion during Week 5 against the Seattle Seahawks and joins linebacker Clay Matthews (jaw) and cornerback Aqib Talib as Rams players who will not play this weekend.
Both teams appear to be limping into the NFC West showdown. The 49ers were already without a starting cornerback and tackle before learning their other starting tackle,
Mike McGlinchey (knee), and lone fullback,
Kyle Juszczyk (knee), would miss four to six weeks.
George Kittle was listed as questionable with a groin injury. There has been no update on the 49ers tight end's status and head coach Kyle Shanahan told reporters on Friday that, at the time, he expected Kittle to play.
The 49ers and Rams kick off on
Sunday at 1:05 p.m. PT from the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum.

Reporter reviews of San Francisco 49ers defensive tackle Javon Kinlaw during training camp were mixed. That's not necessarily unexpected for a rookie defender, especially one who didn't have a typical offseason filled with minicamps, OTAs, workouts, and face-to-face coaching at the team's facility.
Guard Laken Tomlinson is someone who can gauge the rookie's progress. He, after all, had the most experience going against the defender during one-on-ones and team drills.
Tomlinson spoke with reporters via Zoom after Monday's practice and was asked about Kinlaw's development as the team prepares to kick off Week 1 on Sunday.
