49ers WR Jalen Hurd misses practice Tuesday

Aug 10, 2021

Kyle Shanahan said Jalen Hurd just “didn’t feel right” this morning and that’s why he was doing work on the side. Shanahan says he hopes Hurd can consistently be back on the practice field before the 49ers have to make roster decisions.

Fantasy Impact:

49ers WR Wes Welker took it a step further in a Nick Wagoner tweet, saying this about Hurd: "He’s a smart guy and he understands the plays and all that stuff. But you can know it all you want. If you don’t practice, it’s just really hard to make our football team." Hurd's roster spot looks to be in question.

Kittle returns to a great matchup against a Packers defense that ranks 26th in TE aFPA. He should be fired up as a high-end TE1 once again.

Per Bears head coach Matt Eberflus: Ryan Bates remains in the concussion protocol. Elijah Hicks (ankle) and D'Andre Swift (groin) won't practice.

Teven Jenkins will be limited.

Related Players: Roschon Johnson, Travis Homer

Fantasy Impact:

This is definitely a situation to keep an eye on, as Johnson would have a huge workload if Swift were to miss Week 12. Homer has three rush attempts and zero targets on the year.
