Summary
San Francisco ruled out Mike Evans for Sunday’s game at Dallas, extending the receiver’s absence to three straight games with Achilles tendinitis.
Trent Williams is questionable after hurting his shoulder in practice this week; the 38-year-old left tackle left Thursday’s session early and did not practice Friday, though Kyle Shanahan said he still hopes he can play.
Deebo Samuel is set to return after missing three games with a hamstring injury, and newly acquired Keenan Allen is expected to make his 49ers debut, softening the blow from Evans’ absence.
The injury list remains crowded with Dre Greenlaw, Nate Hobbs, Upton Stout and C.J. West also questionable, while Deommodore Lenoir and Renardo Green returned on a limited basis Friday.
The availability questions come as the 7-1 49ers head into a key Week 10 matchup with Dallas and look ahead to a possible Evans return next week in Mexico against Minnesota.
