Coach Kyle Shanahan said Monday that the 49ers expect Guerendo (foot/hamstring) to practice Thursday, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.

Guerendo picked up foot and hamstring injuries in Week 15 that ultimately kept him off the practice field last week and out for Sunday's loss at Miami. In Guerendo's place, Patrick Taylor got the start at running back and played 51 of 64 offensive snaps, but he mustered just 25 yards from scrimmage on nine touches. Meanwhile, Deebo Samuel moonlighted with five carries for 25 yards, and fullback Kyle Juszczyk also had two touches for 26 total yards. Guerendo's return to the practice field Thursday will be an encouraging sign for the 49ers backfield.
