Mike Evans isn’t on the injury report; Upton Stout misses practice again

The San Francisco 49ers’ Week 5 injury report revealed key absences ahead of their showdown with the Seattle Seahawks, while also offering updates on players returning from injury. Wide receiver Mike Evans, who has dealt with rib issues, was notably absent from Thursday’s practice but did not appear on the official injury report, suggesting he may have been given a rest day to manage his condition.

Meanwhile, cornerback Upton Stout did not participate in Friday’s practice, leaving his availability in question for the game, though coach Kyle Shanahan ruled out any setback in his status. On the defensive side, Shanahan confirmed that defensive end Mykel Williams will be activated from the physically unable to perform (PUP) list and is expected to make his season debut, though his playing time remains uncertain.

Williams has shown promising progress in recent weeks, with Shanahan describing his physical condition as improved and his readiness to return to action. The Seahawks, meanwhile, will also face challenges with their own injury concerns, including running back Zach Charbonnet and cornerback Julian Neal, while their offensive line struggles continue to impact their rushing attack.
