Won't play Thursday The 49ers placed Aiyuk (not injury related) on the reserve/ COVID-19 list Wednesday, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.
Impact And the hits keep coming for the 49ers, who placed Kendrick Bourne on the COVID-19 list earlier Wednesday due to a positive test result. Aiyuk and Deebo Samuel (hamstring) have been deemed to be high-risk close contacts of Bourne, meaning they'll be sidelined Thursday against the Packers. With the trio unavailable, San Francisco may be down to just two available wide receivers -- Trent Taylor and Richie James -- but the latter player is questionable to play himself due to an ankle injury.

Brandon Aiyuk Continues to Shine, Earning 'Rookie of the Week' Nomination Aiyuk earns his second-career
NOVEMBER 3, 2020 • 49ERS.COM
Another impressive performance Aiyuk recorded eight receptions on 11 targets for 91 yards and a touchdown in Week 8 against the Seahawks.
Impact Aiyuk followed up his breakout performance in Week 7 with another strong effort to lead the team in targets and yards. A significant portion of his production came with Nick Mullens under center during the fourth quarter, including a leaping catch for 33 yards down the middle of the field. On the team's next drive, Aiyuk hauled in a pass from three yards away for a touchdown in the corner of the end zone. Aiyuk could be in for a significant number of targets again in Week 9 against Green Bay on Thursday, as Deebo Samuel (hamstring) could remain out and George Kittle (ankle) will have to recover in short order to be available.
