San Francisco 49ers wide receiver
Deebo Samuel continues to miss practices. He didn't participate in Monday's bonus session, and head coach Kyle Shanahan revealed that the offense's do-everything player won't participate in Wednesday's practice.
The coach informed reporters that Samuel is working through rib and knee injuries. Following last Thursday night's game against the New York Giants, the 49ers feared Samuel may have sustained a serious rib injury. However, further examination revealed no break, and the receiver was just sore in the days after the game.
The knee injury is a new update.
"It was something we really didn't know until the next day, later in that day, just him being sore and stuff," Shanahan said of the knee injury. "He didn't realize it until later."
Others who will not participate in Wednesday's practice are linebacker
Dre Greenlaw and wide receiver
Jauan Jennings. Greenlaw is working through a low-ankle sprain, while Shanahan said Jennings has a shin injury.
Linebacker
Demetrius Flannigan-Fowles will be a limited participant on Wednesday. He is also dealing with a low-ankle sprain. Cornerback
Ambry Thomas was among the 49ers' inactive players against the Giants and is working his way back from a knee injury. He, too, is limited.
Wide receiver
Brandon Aiyuk was also among the 49ers' inactive players during the Week 3 contest due to a shoulder injury. He practiced on Monday and is doing so again on Wednesday, albeit as a limited participant.

49ers Notebook: Deebo Samuel backs up the smack; Brock Purdy returns to scene of injury; Jauan Jennings beats his favorite team
It's not often that a player can back up copious amounts of trash talk the way Deebo Samuel did against the Philadelphia Eagles on Sunday, but that's exactly what happened during the critical beatdown the 49ers unleashed on the Eagles at Lincoln Financial Field.
Samuel was among multiple 49ers players who expressed confidence over the offseason that the result in last season's NFC Championship game, won 31-7 by the Eagles, would have been different had quarterback Brock Purdy not suffered a season-ending elbow injury during the contest.
