Week four of the NFL's regular season is nearly here and teams are making their final preparations for this week's game. With the San Francisco 49ers heading to Philadelphia to take on a talented-yet-underperforming Eagles team, they will need all of their star players healthy if they hope to pull off the big upset. Here is the injury report from Thursday for both teams:
49ers:
Out (Will Not Play This week)
WR Braylon Edwards (knee), RB Moran Norris (fibula)
Limited participation in practice:
WR Michael Crabtree (foot), RB Frank Gore (ankle), S Donte Whitner (hip)
Full participation in practice:
G Mike Iupati (neck)
Eagles:
Did Not Participate:
CB Brandon Hughes (hamstring), DE Juqua Parker (ankle)
Limited participation in practice:
WR Jeremy Maclin (hamstring), DE Darryl Tapp (pectoral)
Full participation in practice:
S Nate Allen (knee), WR Riley Cooper (concussion), TE Clay Harbor (biceps), T Winston Justice (knee), WR Steve Smith (knee), QB Michael Vick (right hand)
There are not too many changes for the 49ers from their latest injury reports, though the Eagles continue to get healthier by the day. Jeremy Maclin practiced after sitting out Wednesday and Michael Vick continued to practice for the second straight day. It appears Vick will indeed be playing on Sunday, which is not good news for the 49ers and their defensive unit.
