Jake Moody - Ruled out of Week 5 Moody (ankle) won't return to Sunday's game versus the Cardinals, Jennifer Lee Chan of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

The team also will be operating on a short week in advance of Thursday's visit to Seattle, so tryouts for a temporary placekicker may be in the offing early this week.

George Kittle - Suiting up Sunday Kittle (ribs) is listed as active Sunday versus the Cardinals, Lindsey Pallares of the 49ers' official site reports.

Impact Kittle will continue to play through the rib injury that briefly resulted in a questionable to return tag last Sunday against the Patriots.
