San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Brandon Aiyuk is on hand for Monday's bonus practice. It's the first of four practices this week, as the team is coming off a long weekend following its Thursday night win over the New York Giants. Coaches and players had the weekend off.


Aiyuk did not play in the Week 3 contest due to a shoulder injury sustained in the 49ers' Week 2 win over the Los Angeles Rams. Head coach Kyle Shanahan believed his star receiver might have been able to play against the Giants if not for the short week of preparation.

"I think he probably could if it was a Sunday," Shanahan said after the game. "We were hoping maybe he could wake up different today, but he didn't have a chance once we saw that."

According to Matt Barrows of The Athletic, several other players appeared to be absent from Monday's practice, all of whom are dealing with injuries. They are wide receivers Deebo Samuel and Jauan Jennings, linebackers Dre Greenlaw and Demetrius Flannigan-Fowles, and cornerback Ambry Thomas.

Like Aiyuk, Thomas was inactive against the Giants.


Samuel appears to have avoided a serious injury against the Giants.

"Deebo Samuel, his ribs checked out," Shanahan said the day after the game. "No break. Pretty sore today, so he'll be day-to-day."

Brock Purdy strengthened his chemistry with wide receiver Brandon Aiyuk during training camp, after the San Francisco 49ers quarterback returned to practice following offseason surgery on his throwing arm.

It was his fourth game of the season with over 100 receiving yards. "He's different from [WR] Deebo [Samuel]. He's different from [TE] George [Kittle]," quarterback Brock Purdy told reporters on Tuesday. "And so, sort of just taking note of that. And then B.A.'s just got length. He's got range.
