The San Francisco 49ers placed wide receiver Marquez Valdes-Scantling on the Injured Reserve. Valdes-Scantling was listed with a calf injury on Thursday’s practice report.
MVS played a quarter of the snaps in Week 3, but was a healthy scratch in Week 4. A Ricky Pearsall injury meant Valdes-Scantling would go from street clothes to playing in 54 percent of the snaps on a short week against the Los Angeles Rams. Valdes-Scantling saw a season high in snap percentage against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Week 6.
Pearsall didn’t practice again on Friday. That’s a sign the Niners will go a third straight game without their WR1. Here are the wide receivers who we can expect on the field this Sunday:
Jauan Jennings Kendrick Bourne Demarcus Robinson Jordan Watkins Skyy Moore
It’s unlikely Junior
