We\u2019re encouraged by that,\u201d general manager John Lynch said Friday morning on KNBR 680-AM. \u201c\u2026 We want to make sure when we get him back, we have him back for good, that he\u2019s not going to re-injure it. There\u2019s no assurances there, there\u2019s no absolutes, but we\u2019ll continue to communicate with everybody involved, see if he can get out here (Friday). The extra day helps us, and so kind of a fluid situation there.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Fluid, indeed, when it comes to their defensive line, which did produce a season-high five sacks in Sunday\u2019s 32-29 win at Seattle.<\/p>\n<p>Romello Height, who\u2019s started the past two games opposite of Keion White, left the field Friday after a walk-through session and did not participate in the ensuing practice because of an illness.<\/p>\n<p>Flu-like symptoms hit other teammates\u2019 near his locker over the past two weeks, including kicker Eddy Pi\u00f1eiro, tight end George Kittle and right tackle Colton McKivitz. Kittle said it took until Friday for him to fully recover after getting ill last Saturday.<\/p>\n<p>Defensive tackle Greyson Halton (quadriceps) did not practice a second straight day but worked in pads on the side. James Thompson Jr. participated for the first time since a high-ankle sprain Sept. 20.<\/p>\n<p>HEALTH CENTER<\/p>\n<p>Wide receiver Mike Evans (ribs, Achilles) did some light work on the side but missed his second straight practice. He doesn\u2019t look particularly hindered and is expected to play Monday, although his official status won\u2019t be revealed until Saturday.<\/p>\n<p>Wide receiver Christian Kirk practiced a second straight day as a short-term Injured Reserve candidate.<\/p>\n<p>The Commanders listed 22 players on their injury report, and among those not practicing were linebacker K\u2019Lavon Chaisson (knee; rest), running back Jacory Crosky-Merritt (groin), defensive tackle Javon Kinlaw (ankle, knee), wide receiver Terry McLaurin (hamstring; rest) and defensive end Charles Omenihu (groin, ankle).<\/p>\n<p>TRADE CHATTER?<\/p>\n<p>As the countdown begins toward the Nov. 10 trade deadline, general manager John Lynch confirmed calls are being made and received to \u201csee where the market is at,\u201d he said on KNBR 680-AM. Asked if Khalil Mack could be had from the Chargers, Lynch didn\u2019t wade into those tampering waters but did not \u201ca lot of people ask me that. \u2026 It\u2019s usually Kittle because he asks about everything, which I love.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Kittle said of his motives: \u201cAnytime I see John Lynch on his little deck up there on the phone or texting, especially with us a couple weeks out of the trade deadline,\u2029I just like to chirp and ask what he\u2019s interested in, see if he\u2019ll give me anything. \u2026 We ride who we came here with, and then if they want to add somebody, we will welcome them with open arms.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"SANTA CLARA \u2014 Defensive end Nick Bosa, three weeks since straining his left calf, remains out of practice&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":498912,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[30],"tags":[19108,13734,949,402,1533,181,752,182,101,296,103,102,104,106,105,127],"class_list":["post-498911","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-san-francisco","tag-49ers-alert","tag-49ers-hq","tag-football","tag-inside-sports","tag-keywee","tag-latest-headlines","tag-nfl","tag-pm-report","tag-san-francisco","tag-san-francisco-49ers","tag-san-francisco-headlines","tag-san-francisco-news","tag-sf","tag-sf-headlines","tag-sf-news","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/498911","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=498911"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/498911\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/498912"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=498911"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=498911"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=498911"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
