Brock Purdy: #1 in NFL pass yards Jordan Mason: #1 in NFL rush yards

49ers WR Deebo Samuel, listed as questionable for Sunday due to a calf injury, is expected to play vs. the Patriots, per source.

That's a garbage holding call against George Kittle. Inexcusable with two officials right there

"If you'd looked online, you'd think the building is burning down," Nick Bosa said. So the 49ers star DE had a message in a team meeting: "I told the D-line room last night: 'We've lost some guys, but I haven't lost confidence in this room one bit.' And that's the truth."

Jordan Mason apologized to Kyle Shanahan in the locker room for missing a couple runs. (Mason rushed for 123 yards and leads the NFL)

From @NFLGameDay: #49ers RB Christian McCaffrey is back from Germany and could run on hard ground this week. He should be back, at least, by early November; Meanwhile, #Chiefs TE Travis Kelce remains a key part of their offense, despite the numbers. pic.x.com/aftuy2lqn9

#49ers WR Deebo Samuel (calf) and LT Trent Williams (illness, toe) are both listed as questionable and both likely to play, sources say. Williams being active could hinge on a pre-game workout, but there is optimism.

Maliek Collins looks like an All-Pro today. New England can't block him in both the run and pass games. Can't overstate how important that is for a 49ers team that just lost Javon Hargrave at DT

Is that the diving catch that gets Brandon Aiyuk out of his funk? Nice play

Kyle Juszczyk finally got to return a punt in an NFL game. There was no way he was calling for a fair catch

That one's gonna keep Malik Mustapha up at night

Here is my important stance on Jauan Jennings: I know why he doesn't get that many targets in a loaded offense but he is a friggin awesome football player.

A change at corner in nickel packages? Sure seemed like one on Sunday. #49ers rookie CB Renardo Green played 23 defensive snaps against the Patriots. Isaac Yiadom played 15.

Statement stop for the 49ers run defense. Maliek Collins

Renardo Green has taken over for Isaac Yiadom -- might be similar to the 49ers' piecemeal insertion of Malik Mustapha and Dee Winters into the lineup

Top two 49ers linebackers are Demetrius Flannigan-Fowles and De'Vondre Campbell. This is a real test of depth

Jordan Elliott might've aggravated the ankle injury he suffered in practice on Thursday. Situation at DT grows more precarious

49ers inactives: S Talanoa Hufanga WR Ronnie Bell OL Ben Bartch CB Darrell Luter Jr. Trent Williams, Jordan Elliott, Dee Winters all are set to go. 49ers roster actually in solid shape entering this game

#49ers DTs Kevin Givens and Maliek Collins split a sack on third down. Givens up to 2.5 sacks on the day.

Spencer Burford -- 49ers' starting RG from last season -- in for Dominick Puni, who's shaken up.

#49ers WR Jacob Cowing has a shoulder injury. His return is questionable.

Evan Anderson drew a double team on his first career snap. That'll do

#49ers are warming up right now. S Talanoa Hufanga (ankle) is on the field but not going through normal warmups. He's listed as questionable and Niners elevated S Jaylen Mahoney from the practice squad on Saturday.

Isaac Guerendo fumbles the opening kickoff of the second half. The #49ers' special teams woes continue to accumulate.

#49ers settle for a 22-yard field goal from Jake Moody after having goal to go from the 6. They lead 3-0 with 2:26 left in opening quarter.

The San Francisco 49ers will officially have wide receiver Deebo Samuel back in action vs. the New England Patriots in Week 4.

Samuel was not among the team’s inactives after being listed as questionable on Friday’s injury report. A report came out Saturday night that the 2021 All-Pro planned to play. That is now official.

Not suiting up Sunday is safety Talanoa Hufanga who rolled his ankle in practice Thursday. Hufanga returned in Week 3 after recovering from a torn ACL in Week 11 last season. It’s unclear whether rookie Malik Mustapha or veteran George Odum will start in his stead
