The only notable absence from practice was wide receiver Ricky Pearsall, who has not played or practiced since suffering a knee injury in Week 4. When asked if Pearsall had experienced a setback, head coach Kyle Shanahan clarified, "It's just the same as what I said last week. No setback. Just taking longer to heal than we thought."
Quarterback Brock Purdy, sidelined since Week 4 with a turf toe injury, remained a limited participant as he works toward returning to action.

Offensive lineman Ben Bartch (ankle) was a full practice participant for the first time since having his practice window opened last week. When asked if he might reclaim his starting left guard job on Sunday, Shanahan said, "We'll see how the week goes. It depends on how he looks. I thought [Spencer Burford] did a real good job [on Sunday]. But he's (Bartch) not limited today. He's full go, so it gives him a better chance. But we'll see how the week plays out."
Meanwhile, defensive end Bryce Huff was back on the field after missing the past two games with a hamstring injury, a promising development for San Francisco's defensive front.
