49ers Wednesday practice notes:
WR Brandon Jones, who has been out since Aug. 6 with a broken right shoulder blade, returned to full practice Wednesday. Singletary said he will know more after today's practice whether Jones will be available to play Sunday against the Seahawks.

DE Justin Smith, one of the stars of the 49ers' season-opening win against the Cardinals, did not practice. Although he's listed with an elbow injury, he was held out as a veteran courtesy. He is expected to return to work today and play Sunday.

LB Ahmad Brooks (knee) did not practice and he is not expected to be available for Sunday's game.

CB Marcus Hudson (chest) was limited, while guard David Baas (biceps), NT Aubrayo Franklin (shin), guard Chilo Rachal (neck), and DE Isaac Sopoaga (shoulder) saw full work.

“I will be playing on Sunday. Very excited, can’t pass up playing the Packers. I will be out there for sure.”

George Kittle says he’s good to go for Sunday

Fantasy Impact:

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.
