Matthews started with the ones the first two Preseason games. But reason he didn't have that many snaps (less than 10) is that Shanahan stated he already knows what he has in Matthews. So I wouldn't look too much into it.

But yah I wouldn't mind seeing James make it:

Samuel
Goodwin
Hurd
Pettis
Matthews
James

I think they'll strongly consider starting Taylor on IR though designate to return week 8.

We will see...I don't think Taylor goes on IR. They caught the fracture before it completely broke

#49ers coach Kyle Shanahan said WR Trent Taylor suffered a Jones fracture in his foot but there's hope he will be ready for week 1. Shanahan said they caught it before it broke completely so it could be 4-6 weeks instead of 8-10.

Probably signed because he, Henry and Thompson will play most of the 4th preseason game.

I'm guessing Matthews is getting cut soon? That would explain the Nick Williams signing. Need a warm body at WR to eat snaps.

After hearing Kyle's presser, I don't think the signing has bearing on Matthews's spot. Kyle said Goodwin, Pettis and Hurd are out for Thursday's game. We need bodies.

Taylor is out and I doubt we see more than a couple snaps from Goodwin and maybe a drive or two from Deebo.
