Inactives:
- OL Ben Bartch
- QB Joshua Dobbs
- DT Jordan Elliott (knee)
- LB Demetrius Flannigan-Fowles (calf)
- K Jake Moody (right ankle)
- CB Charvarius Ward (knee)
- TE Brayden Willis
On Sunday, Cornerback Charvarius Ward suffered a knee bruise against the Arizona Cardinals and was officially listed as questionable for Thursday night's game. When asked on Tuesday about his status, he replied, "I feel good, good enough. I feel good. Yeah, I'm good."
Despite his optimism, Ward was ultimately listed as inactive.
On Wednesday, the 49ers ruled out four players: defensive tackle Jordan Elliott (knee), linebacker Demetrius Flannigan-Fowles (calf), safety Talanoa Hufanga (wrist), and kicker Jake Moody (right ankle). Hufanga was later placed on injured reserve and is expected to miss at least a month after tearing ligaments in his wrist against the Cardinals. The team listed wide receiver Chris Conley (oblique) as questionable to play, and he is active.
The 49ers also made an additional roster move on Wednesday, promoting tight end Brayden Willis from the practice squad to the active roster. However, Willis is among the seven inactive players.
Just hours before kickoff, the 49ers announced that defensive lineman Evan Anderson and safety Jaylen Mahoney have been temporarily elevated from the practice squad for the game. Both players will revert to the practice squad following the matchup.
