Renardo Green - Nabs first NFL interception Green registered six tackles (four solo) along with an interception versus the Seahawks in Week 6 on Thursday in a 36-24 victory.

Impact Green was given his biggest NFL opportunity so far due to the absence of Charvarius Ward (knee). Green ended up logging 90 percent of San Francisco's defensive snaps -- by far his highest count this season -- and made a key interception of Geno Smith midway through the fourth quarter. Green will likely move back to working primarily on special teams when Ward is able to return to action.

Ji'Ayir Brown - Records eight stops on TNF Brown posted eight tackles (six solo), including one for loss, in a 36-24 Week 6 win over Seattle on Thursday.

Impact Brown tied for second on the team in tackles behind Fred Warner (11). The free safety's eight stops also tied his season-high mark. Brown has logged every one of the 49ers' defensive snaps in five of the team's six contests so far this year.

Fred Warner - Racks up 11 stops Thursday Warner tallied 11 tackles (six solo) along with a defensed pass and a forced fumble in Thursday's 36-24 Week 6 win over Seattle.

Impact Warner led San Francisco in stops in the victory and posted his second straight double-digit tackle total. The star linebacker also had one of his patented punched-ball forced fumbles in the fourth quarter, and though it was recovered by the Seahawks, the ball traveled several yards backward, turning a would-be first down into a third down. Warner has continued to be a strong IDP asset this year, totaling 50 tackles (30 solo), including 1.0 sacks, along with two interceptions (one of which he returned for a touchdown) and four forced fumbles through six games.

Patrick Taylor Jr. - Extra work Thursday Taylor rushed five times for 16 yards and caught his lone target for 12 receiving yards in Thursday's 36-24 win over Seattle.

Impact Starter Jordan Mason (shoulder) missed chunks of Thursday's victory over the Seahawks due to injury, opening the door for Isaac Guerendo (10-99-0) and Taylor to split snaps in the interim. The 49ers' fourth-round rookie had the standout performance in Mason's absence, while Taylor produced just 3.2 yards per tote in his first action on offense this year. The 26-year-old Taylor could maintain a small role on offense if Mason is forced to miss the team's next game against the Chiefs on Oct. 20 due to the AC joint injury he sustained in Thursday's win.

Jauan Jennings - Gains 27 yards on TNF Jennings had three receptions (five targets) for 27 yards in Thursday's 36-24 win over Seattle.

Impact Jennings saw the field for nearly half (49 percent) of San Francisco's offensive plays Thursday, a number which has mirrored his snap count this season aside from his standout performance against the Rams back in Week 3. Since that three-score game, the veteran slot man has produced just seven catches for 128 yards with no trips to the end zone over his last three contests. Jennings remains an option for those in deeper formats when the 49ers host the Chiefs next Sunday.

Matthew Wright - Should be good for Week 7 Wright is expected to serve as the 49ers' placekicker on Sunday, Oct. 20 against the Chiefs after an MRI on his shoulder was returned negative Friday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports...

Impact Wright got hurt while attempting to tackle Seahawks returner Dee Williams on a kickoff late in the fourth quarter of Thursday's 36-24 win. He was spotted getting examined by a member of the 49ers' staff afterward, but the nature of the injury wasn't known until coach Kyle Shanahan spoke to the media Friday, when he told Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com that Wright dislocated his shoulder. Wright likely will focus on rehab versus practice in advance of the Week 7 showdown with the Chiefs, but the 49ers seemingly aren't in the market for a third kicker in three games after Jake Moody suffered a high-ankle sprain Week 5.

Jordan Elliott - Nearing return Elliot (knee) is expected to return to practice next week, Jennifer Lee Chan of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

Impact Elliot picked up an apparent knee injury in the 49ers' Week 5 loss to the Cardinals that forced him to miss Thursday night's win over the Seahawks. The 26-year-old defensive lineman's participation in practice next week will provide the best indication of his potential availability in Week 7, when the Chiefs travel to San Francisco.

Charvarius Ward - Considered day-to-day Ward is considered day-to-day with a knee injury, Jennifer Lee Chan of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

Impact Ward didn't play in the San Francisco's Week 6 win over the Seahawks after sustaining a knee injury the week prior, but it appears a return to the field could be on the horizon. The seventh-year pro's participation in practice next week will provide the best indication of his potential availability in Week 7, when the 49ers host the Chiefs.

The 49ers avoid another late-game collapse thanks in part to big plays from rookies

Malik Mustapha - Day-to-day with ankle sprain Mustapha is day-to-day with a low ankle sprain that he suffered in Thursday's matchup against the Seahawks, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Mustapha exited earlier in San Francisco's eventual victory over the Seahawks but not before logging two tackles and an interception. Given that the 49ers played on Thursday, the 5-foot-10 safety will have a longer stretch to recover if he's hoping to play next Sunday against the Chiefs.

Matthew Wright - Hurts shoulder in SF debut Wright dislocated his shoulder during Thursday's 36-24 win over the Seahawks and is awaiting an MRI on the injury, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Wright suffered the injury while making a tackle late in the game. Prior to that, he was effective filling in for Jake Moody (ankle), converting all three of his field-goal attempts and adding three successful PAT tries. If Wright's unable to recover before the 49ers host the Chiefs on Oct. 20, San Francisco would have to turn to its third kicker in three games.

Ricky Pearsall - Practice window to open soon Coach Kyle Shanahan said Friday that Pearsall (chest) will return to practice next week, Eric Branch of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

Impact Shanahan thus confirmed a report from Albert Breer of NFL on Prime Video prior to Thursday's game at Seattle. The 49ers will need to make a procedural move to allow Pearsall to practice, but once his 21-day window to do so is opened, he'll begin the final stages of getting back into game shape since he suffered a gunshot wound during an attempted robbery Aug. 31.

Jordan Mason - AC joint sprain confirmed Coach Kyle Shanahan confirmed Friday that Mason suffered an AC joint sprain in his left shoulder during Thursday's 36-24 win at Seattle and is considered day-to-day, Eric Branch of...

Impact Mason exited in the second quarter Thursday after landing on his left shoulder at the end of a carry and clearly favoring it as he went to the 49ers' sideline. While he was deemed questionable to return, he logged one play after halftime before departing the game for good. The 49ers never gave Mason a designation after that, and he was seen on the sideline wearing his helmet the rest of the second half, but Isaac Guerendo handled most of the RB reps for San Francisco down the stretch. The 49ers don't play again until Sunday, Oct. 20 against the Chiefs, so Mason will have plenty of time to get healthy ahead of that contest.

Christian McCaffrey - Won't return Week 7 Coach Kyle Shanahan said Friday that McCaffrey (Achilles) won't return to practice next week, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.

Impact It means McCaffrey will miss at least one more game, leaving either Jordan Mason (shoulder) or Isaac Guerendo as the lead back for a Super Bowl rematch with the Chiefs on Oct. 20. Mason suffered an AC joint sprain during Thursday's win over Seattle, leaving Guerendo and Patrick Taylor to handle backfield snaps after halftime.

Jordan Mason - Likely has AC sprain Mason (shoulder) is believed to have a sprained AC joint but will undergo further testing Friday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

Impact Mason left Thursday's win over Seattle in the second quarter, returned for one play after halftime, and then missed the rest of the game. Isaac Guerendo filled in as San Francisco's lead back and iced the game with a 76-yard run in the closing minutes, with Patrick Taylor also taking on some work (five carries, one catch) in Mason's absence. Meanwhile, the 49ers hope to get Christian McCaffrey (Achilles) back at some point within the next few games, although it's not clear if he has any chance to be ready for a Week 7 matchup with the Chiefs on Oct. 20.

Isaac Guerendo - Impressive in expanded role Guerendo rushed 10 times for 99 yards in the 49ers' 36-24 win over the Seahawks on Thursday night.

Impact The rookie saw the most robust volume of his young career in the victory, as Jordan Mason's multiple exits from the game due to a shoulder injury left Guerendo as the lead back for all but one play in the second half. Guerendo had scuffled to just 23 yards on nine carries when he took the handoff on the opening play of the 49ers' final possession, a play on which he broke off a 76-yard run up the right side of the field that he nearly scored on. The rookie fourth-round pick was caught from behind but made sure his momentum didn't carry him into the end zone as he went down, forcing the Seahawks to burn two timeouts before Kyle Juszczyk scored a game-sealing six-yard touchdown. San Francisco has 10 days before a Super Bowl rematch with the Chiefs on Sunday, Oct. 20, but if neither Mason nor Christian McCaffrey (Achilles/calf) is able to suit up for that contest, Guerendo would be in line to serve as San Francisco's No. 1 back for that marquee battle.
