The San Francisco 49ers are at The Greenbrier in West Virginia, where they held their second of three full practices this week. The team is preparing for its Week 2 contest against the Philadelphia Eagles on Sunday at Lincoln Financial Field in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.
Dre Greenlaw didn't practice. He will
undergo surgery this week to repair a core muscle injury. NFL insider Ian Rapoport says the linebacker will miss six to eight weeks.
Emmanuel Moseley was seen in uniform and running on the sidelines, testing his knee's strength (
NBC Sports Bay Area). The starting cornerback was inactive for Week 1, and the team lost its other starting corner,
Jason Verrett, for the season to a torn ACL. Moseley's status may be worth keep an eye on all the way until game day.
Two players, defensive linemen
Javon Kinlaw and
Arik Armstead, who did not practice on Wednesday returned to the practice field today. Kinlaw has been dealing with a knee issue that left him inactive for Week 1 while Armstead's injury was a recent development. While both were limited, it is progress.
Wide receiver
Brandon Aiyuk has been the subject of much discussion this week after the second-year player saw a fewer-than-expected snap count against the Lions, splitting time on the field with
Trent Sherfield.
"On Thursday, as the 49ers closed offensive warmups,
Aiyuk's route wasn't crisp and he got coached up afterward by offensive coordinator Mike McDaniel," noted Cam Inman of Bay Area News Group.
Below are Thursday's practice participation reports for both the 49ers and Eagles, which were provided by the 49ers Communications staff.

'It's a big concern this year': 49ers coach Kyle Shanahan discusses Javon Kinlaw's injury, development setback
Some fans are a bit too quick to write off defensive tackle Javon Kinlaw, feeling that he is yet another first-round misstep by the San Francisco 49ers. However, head coach Kyle Shanahan still believes in him and feels the defender's injury setbacks can still be overcome.
Kinlaw entered the draft as a raw but physically gifted prospect that could develop into a force along the defensive line. That development has been stalled as the 49ers do what they can to manage the second-year player's injury.
Kinlaw sustained a knee injury on December 20, 2020, against the Dallas Cowboys, forcing him to miss the season's final two games. He underwent a procedure after the 2020 season and then had what was described as a minor procedure to reduce swelling in the knee later in
49ers injury updates: Kyle Shanahan talks K'Waun Williams, JaMycal Hasty, Kevin Givens, Maurice Hurst, Javon Kinlaw
The San Francisco 49ers are getting healthier. Kind of. There are still several missing pieces, like All-Pro tight end George Kittle. But some other pieces are scheduled to return soon.
This week, the 49ers opened the practice window for running back JaMycal Hasty, who could be activated off injured reserve in time for this weekend's game against the Indianapolis Colts. Cornerback K'Waun Williams is practicing after missing the last two games due to a calf injury.
"It's nice to get Hasty back this week," head coach Kyle Shanahan said on KNBR's Tolbert, Krueger & Brooks show. "He helped us out a lot in those first two games with doing some third-down routes and things like that, and running the ball.
"So, getting Hasty back should help
49ers-Colts Injury Report: Trent Williams day-to-day with ankle injury; Jimmy Garoppolo limited; Trey Lance doesn't practice
The San Francisco 49ers are preparing for their Week 7 contest against the Indianapolis Colts on Sunday at Levi's Stadium in Santa Clara, California.
Quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo, coming off a calf injury, continues to practice with his teammates this week. He is expected to start against the Colts.

The 49ers' rookie quarterback, Trey Lance, hasn't practiced this week and was not on the field today. While his status for Sunday is uncertain, it is unlikely he is suited up for the
49ers' Nick Bosa believes he and Arik Armstead are dominant in this category
Most analysts already view Nick Bosa as one of the best pass rushers in the NFL. He racked up nine regular-season sacks as a rookie and added four more in the playoffs. This year, he leads the San Francisco 49ers with five sacks.
While the accolades have come due to Bosa's ability to frustrate opposing quarterbacks, the talented defensive end believes he and a teammate might actually be vastly underrated when it comes to another category.
Bosa has proven himself to be a great overall player, remaining in the game during run plays. He ranks fifth against the run among edge rushers with over 55 snaps, per Pro Football Focus' grading system.
"I love the run game because it just gets me going in the game," Bosa said after today's practice. "And if the
