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.

49ers allowing Arik Armstead to leave was a 'tough' decision
Arik Armstead was the longest-tenured member of the San Francisco 49ers, joining the team as a first-round draft pick two years before head coach Kyle Shanahan's tenure began. Despite the team's efforts to retain him by negotiating a restructured contract, they ultimately released the veteran defensive lineman when no agreement was reached.
"It was real tough," Shanahan said this week about the situation. "I mean, we've been with Arik since we've been here, and I know he was here a couple of years before us, so it wasn't something we really wanted to happen. It's one of the tough things when trying to keep a team together, and just where it goes with the salary cap and stuff."

The two sides had tried to work on a contract restructuring to prevent his departure but ultimately could not reach an agreement, leading to Armstead's exit.
On his podcast, "Third and Long," Armstead opened up about the situation, stating that the offer the 49ers extended was insulting, especially after playing nine seasons for the organization.
After the Super Bowl, the 49ers approached Armstead to discuss the restructure, which he expected. The team had initially indicated that they wanted to sign him
