The San Francisco 49ers are preparing for their Week 10 contest against the New Orleans Saints on Sunday at the Mercedes-Benz Superdome in New Orleans, Louisiana.
Both wide receiver
Deebo Samuel and running back
Tevin Coleman are ruled out. Neither practiced this week. Two other receivers,
River Cracraft and
Trent Taylor, are listed as "questionable."
Sunday will be Samuel's third consecutive missed game due to a hamstring injury. He also missed the first three games of the season after suffering a Jones fracture in June.
Head coach Kyle Shanahan noted that cornerback
Richard Sherman would not be activated from injured reserve before this weekend's game. The 49ers opened his practice windows this week. Sherman's most-likely return will be on November 29 after the bye week, against the Los Angeles Rams.
"He did a good job," Shanahan explained. "Was able to practice all three days on scout team. If we had to do it, we could push it, but it wouldn't be the smartest thing. So, we're going to take him into this bye week and feel good about him going against the Rams."
Below are the official injury reports for the 49ers and Saints, which were provided by the 49ers Communications staff. Also included are Friday's practice participation reports.

The San Francisco 49ers are preparing for their Week 10 contest against the New Orleans Saints on Sunday at the Mercedes-Benz Superdome in New Orleans, Louisiana.
The 49ers opened the practice window for Richard Sherman, and the veteran cornerback took part in his first practice since before Week 1. He has been attempting to return from a calf injury.
Head coach Kyle Shanahan is hopeful to have Sherman back for San Francisco's Week 12 game against the Los Angeles Rams.
"I know Doctor Sherm thinks he's got a chance this week," Shanahan added. "And I've been around him enough that that's why I don't count him out on that. But my goal is hopefully to get him back by the Rams. But I won't rule him out for anything because of what his prognosis

It's starting to look like wide receiver Deebo Samuel will miss another game. He is dealing with a hamstring injury and did not practice on Wednesday or Thursday. Head coach Kyle Shanahan had hoped to get him onto the practice field on Thursday after the team had a chance to re-evaluate his injury.
Wide receiver Trent Taylor (back), who missed Wednesday's practice, was back on the field.
Still no sign of
San Francisco 49ers general manager John Lynch joined KNBR this morning, as he does every other week, and provided several updates to the team's receivers group. The 49ers were undermanned last week against the Green Bay Packers, which contributed to the 34-17 defeat.
Quick summary:
Deebo Samuel will try to practice on Friday. His status remains uncertain.
Kendrick Bourne will travel with the 49ers this weekend.
Trent Taylor and River Cracraft are on track to play.
Lynch started with Samuel, who remains a long shot to play this weekend against the New Orleans Saints.
"I think the final challenge or opportunity for Deebo to show that he can go is out here on Friday," Lynch said on the Murph & Mac
