IR

PUP

  • TEGeorge KittleSFPUPLimitedAug 18

    Achilles / knee

    On PUP, running and cutting, targeting Week 1 activation. Do not start until he's off the report.

    Beneficiary Jake Tonges

  • WRAlec PierceINDPUPLimitedAug 17

    Ankle

    Expected Week 1 ready. Vertical role with Jones; sit until full practice.

Questionable

  • QBPatrick MahomesKCQFullAug 18

    ACL recovery

    Avoided PUP, fully cleared for camp. Monday night rust versus Denver's elite front is the real designation.

    Beneficiary Isiah Pacheco

  • WRMalik NabersNYGQLimitedAug 17

    ACL recovery

    Full-speed team drills on Aug 17. Buy the dip only if Friday's report is Full.

  • RBChristian McCaffreySFQDNPAug 18

    Soft-tissue tightness

    Missed a practice with tightness. Melbourne indoor helps if he goes; 49ers worked out extra backs.

  • WRPuka NacuaLARQDNPAug 18

    Groin soreness

    Not considered serious. Treat as a top-three WR if active Friday.

    Beneficiary Davante Adams

  • RBJosh JacobsGBQDNPAug 17

    Groin

    Expected to miss at least one camp week. Minnesota's run D plus the groin is a Week 1 fade.

    Beneficiary MarShawn Lloyd

  • RBJ.K. DobbinsDENQLimitedAug 18

    Hamstring

    Left practice, returned limited. Lead back in Denver — sit if anything less than full for Monday night.

  • WRMike EvansTBQDNPAug 18

    Quad

    Soft-tissue history. WR2 upside in the Cincinnati shootout if the quad is quiet.

    Beneficiary Emeka Egbuka

  • WRJaylen WaddleMIAQLimitedAug 17

    Leg

    Spotted limping. Sit if the limp survives the Friday report.

    Beneficiary Tyreek Hill

  • WRLuther Burden IIICHIQDNPAug 16

    Groin

    Out for preseason, expected Week 1. May start slow; Odunze is the first beneficiary.

    Beneficiary Rome Odunze

  • WREmeka EgbukaTBQLimitedAug 18

    Toe sprain

    Left practice, considered minor. Top-15 path if Evans is also limited.

  • WRChris OlaveNOQFullAug 15

    Concussion history

    Round 3 ADP already discounts availability. Talent is WR1; durability is the question.

  • WRRashee RiceKCQFullAug 14

    Availability / injury history

    Twelve games over two seasons. Mahomes rust plus Rice's history makes the stack volatile.

    Beneficiary Xavier Worthy
