The San Francisco 49ers have elevated two players—safety Tashaun Gipson and wide receiver Malik Turner—from the practice squad ahead of their Week 1 road matchup against the Chicago Bears. These are standard elevations, meaning the two will revert back to the practice squad after the game.
Turner could be valuable on special teams while Gipson provides help with starting safety Jimmie Ward on injured reserve and slated to miss the first four games of the season due to a hamstring injury.
The 49ers and Bears kick off from Soldier Field at 10 a.m. PT (noon CT) on Sunday.
