Jauan Jennings - Returns to full practice Jennings (ankle) practiced in full Saturday and doesn't have an injury designation for Monday night's season-opening matchup with the Jets.
Impact Jennings was limited in San Francisco's first two practices of the week due to an ankle issue but appears to be good to go for the team's regular-season opener Monday after practicing in full Saturday. The 27-year-old is slated to fill the 49ers' No. 3 wideout role behind star pass catchers Deebo Samuel and Brandon Aiyuk, though Jennings could see a bit more attention Monday with Aiyuk not expected to handle a full workload after sitting out most of training camp while pushing for a contract extension.

Isaac Guerendo - Set to suit up in season opener Guerendo (groin) practiced in full Saturday and doesn't have an injury designation for Monday's Week 1 contest against the Jets.
Impact Guerendo was a limited participant in each of San Francisco's first two practices of the week after missing all of last week due to a groin injury. He is in line to make his NFL debut Monday, though, after returning to a full practice session Saturday. Christian McCaffrey (calf/Achilles) is listed as questionable for the opener against the Jets but has stated that he's definitely suiting up, so Guerendo will likely see limited work in the running game behind the star tailback and backup Jordan Mason.
SEPTEMBER 7 • ROTOWIRE
Dee Winters - Ruled out for Week 1 Winters (ankle) will not play Monday against the Jets, Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
Impact Winters sustained an ankle injury in the 49ers' preseason finale against the Saints. He was a DNP for all three practices leading up to Week 1, and he'll turn his focus to try and play in Week 2 against the Vikings on Sept. 15.

Brandon Aiyuk - Likely not full workload Week 1 Head coach Kyle Shanahan said Saturday he'd be "surprised" if Aiyuk saw a full workload in the season opener Monday against the Jets, Eric Branch of the San Francisco Chronicle rep...
Impact That's about as direct of coach speak as you can ask for, and it makes some sense given Aiyuk missed the majority of August practices before ending his hold-in with a four-year, $120 million extension signed 10 days ago. The difficult part to decipher is how much of a workload Aiyuk will receive if it's not the "full" amount and it's more complicating considering Monday's 8:15 p.m. ET kickoff. That the contest is against the vaunted Jets defense and All-Pro left tackle Trent Williams, who himself just signed a recent extension, only recently returned from his holdout, it might be prudent to avoid using Aiyuk in fantasy if managers have other capable options.
SEPTEMBER 7 • ROTOWIRE
Yetur Gross-Matos - Won't play Monday Gross-Matos (knee) has been ruled out for Week 1 against the Jets, Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
Impact Gross-Matos logged back-to-back DNP's to start the week, and his next chance at suiting up will be Week 2 against the Vikings on Sept. 15. With Gross-Matos sidelined, Robert Beal will be called upon to provide additional depth at defensive end Monday behind starters Nick Bosa and Leonard Floyd.
SEPTEMBER 7 • ROTOWIRE
Talanoa Hufanga - Unlikely to play Monday Hufanga (knee) is listed as doubtful for Monday's game against the Jets, Eric Branch of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.
Impact Hufanga was a limited participant in the 49ers' first two practices of the week as he continues to work his way back from an ACL tear from last November. Assuming he doesn't suit up Monday, George Odum is the likely candidate to start at strong safety alongside free safety Ji'Ayir Brown.
SEPTEMBER 7 • ROTOWIRE
Christian McCaffrey - Questionable for Monday McCaffrey (calf/Achilles) is listed as questionable for Monday's game against the Jets, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.
Impact McCaffrey outright said he'd be available for the Week 1 opener Friday, so this designation might be the 49ers tipping their hand in regards to his projected workload. Expect more information regarding the All-Pro's status to come well before the 8:15 p.m. ET kickoff Monday. Regardless of McCaffrey's availability, Jordan Mason should be primed for some work as the primary backup to the star running back.
SEPTEMBER 7 • ROTOWIRE
Trent Williams - Expected to play Monday Williams seems to be in line for a normal workload in Monday's season opener against the Jets, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.
Impact San Francisco offensive line coach and run-game coordinator Chris Foerster expressed confidence Friday in Williams being able to suit up for Week 1, though he also indicated that Jaylon Moore will be ready to give the All-Pro left tackle breathers, if needed. Williams held out of training camp and didn't join the team until he and the organization agreed to a restructured contract Tuesday.

Talanoa Hufanga - Logs limited practice Friday Hufanga (knee) practiced in limited fashion Friday, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.
Impact It was the second straight limited practice session for Hufanga, who underwent surgery after tearing his ACL last November. The 24-year-old didn't play in any exhibition contests and is far from certain to be ready to suit up for Monday's regular-season opener against the Jets. However, Hufanga's ability to log limited sessions in practice bodes well for the likelihood that he'll be able to get back into game action in the not-too-distant future.

Christian McCaffrey - Says he'll play McCaffrey (calf/Achilles) said Friday that he has no doubt he'll play Monday against the Jets, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.
Impact McCaffrey made the comment after being a limited practice participant Thursday and Friday, but he was less confident about handling his normal workload, merely responding "I hope so" when reporters asked. While the playing time won't be entirely up to him, it sounds like McCaffrey isn't worried about missing Monday's game on account of the calf/Achilles injury that was initially reported the first week of August. He's been doing work on a side field since mid-August and rejoined practice with his teammates Tuesday.
SEPTEMBER 6 • ROTOWIRE
Isaac Guerendo - Remains limited Guerendo (groin) remained limited in practice Friday, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.
Impact The rookie missed most of training camp with a hamstring injury and then hurt his groin in late August a week after returning to practice. With Christian McCaffrey (calf) on track to play and Guerendo having taken very few practice reps this summer, there's not much chance of Guerendo having a significant role Week 1 even if he ends up being healthy enough to play.
SEPTEMBER 6 • ROTOWIRE
Jauan Jennings - Limited in practice again Jennings (ankle) remained limited in practice Friday, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.
Impact Jennings dealt with ankle and then oblique injuries during the preseason, but there'd been no report of recent trouble until the Niners listed him Thursday on their first official injury report of the season. He's now been limited in back-to-back practices, setting up Saturday as the final chance for full participation before the Niners host the Jets on Monday.
SEPTEMBER 6 • ROTOWIRE
Christian McCaffrey - Listed as limited Friday McCaffrey (calf) was a limited practice participant Friday, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.
Impact He has just one more chance to progress to full participation before Monday's game against the Jets, but it does seem McCaffrey is on track to play after 49ers GM John Lynch made optimistic comments Friday morning, saying the running back is "doing great" and will "be out there and ready to go," per Cam Inman of The San Jose Mercury News. The Niners listed McCaffrey as a limited participant Thursday as well, and he may end up being technically 'questionable' even if the team expects him to play.

Christian McCaffrey - Looking healthy at practice McCaffrey (calf/Achilles) is practicing Friday and appears to be "moving at full speed with no issue," according to Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com.
Impact 49ers GM John Lynch said Friday morning that McCaffrey looks like his usual self and is expected to play in Monday's game against the Jets. McCaffrey was listed as limited Thursday on San Francisco's first official injury/practice report of the season, but it sounds like he may progress to full participation Friday or Saturday. His calf injury initially was reported the first week of August, about five weeks before San Francisco's season opener this coming Monday.

Christian McCaffrey - Expected to play GM John Lynch said Friday morning that he expects McCaffrey (calf/Achilles) to play Monday against the Jets, Cam Inman of The San Jose Mercury News reports.
Impact "Obviously we want to see him progress through the week," Lynch said. "We had confidence he'd be ready ... He'll be out there and ready to go." The GM's comments suggest McCaffrey will play so long as he avoids a setback, after the 49ers listed him as a limited participant Thursday on their first official injury report of the season. He suffered a calf strain in early August and didn't return to practice until Tuesday, leaving Jordan Mason as San Francisco's top running back for much of training camp and the preseason.
