The San Francisco 49ers are preparing for their Week 6 contest against the Washington Commanders on Monday at Levi's Stadium in Santa Clara, California.
Defensive end Nick Bosa continues to miss practice while recovering from a calf injury. It remains unclear whether he will be available for Monday night's game against the Washington Commanders.
"We want to make sure when we get him back, we have him back for good, that he's not going to re-injure it," general manager John Lynch said Friday. "And there's no assurances there, there's no absolutes, but we'll continue to communicate with everybody involved, see if he can get out here today. The extra day helps us, and so kind of a fluid situation there."
Wide receiver Mike Evans continues to deal with rib and Achilles issues. Although he didn't practice, he was seen working on the sideline during Friday's session. Evans has been playing through a rib injury, while the Achilles issue is new. Head coach Kyle Shanahan described it as "soreness."
Defensive tackle Gracen Halton missed his second consecutive practice with a quadriceps injury. Like Evans, he was seen working on the side Friday.
Fullback Kyle Juszczyk and wide receiver Christian Kirk continued practicing as they work toward potential returns. Juszczyk suffered a hyperextended knee and a bone bruise in Week 4, while the 49ers opened Kirk's practice window this week as he works his way back from a calf injury.

A stomach illness is making the rounds in the locker room, and rookie defensive end Romello Height appears to be the latest to catch it. He did not practice on Friday.
