Pierce (concussion) wasn't spotted at Friday's practice, James Boyd of The Athletic reports.

Pierce didn't practice Wednesday or Thursday, so the wideout appears to be trending toward missing Sunday's game against the Rams. If Pierce is ruled out for the contest, added Week 4 snaps alongside Michael Pittman and Josh Downs would be available for Adonai Mitchell.

McLaurin (quadriceps) wasn't spotted at Friday's practice, Nicki Jhabvala of The Washington Post reports.

After being a non-participant in Wednesday and Thursday's sessions, McLaurin's apparent absence from Friday's practice doesn't bode well for his chances of playing Sunday against the Falcons. Added clarity with regard to the wideout's Week 4 status will arrive via the Commanders' upcoming injury report, which will arrive later Friday.

Young wasn't targeted in Thursday's 23-20 win over the Cardinals. He returned one kick for 29 yards.

Young also recorded three solo tackles on special teams. He played just two offensive snaps, and it appears he'll only handle a serious amount of offensive work if injuries stack up or the Seahawks are in a blowout game.

Bobo caught his lone target for 17 yards in Thursday's 23-20 win over the Cardinals.

Bobo played just 10 offensive snaps (15 percent), as the Seahawks frequently utilized two tight-end sets, leaving little work for their No. 4 wide receiver. This was Bobo's first catch of the season. He remains a dependable real-life option for the Seahawks because of his run-blocking ability, but his fantasy upside remains negligible.

Horton caught one of two targets for 10 yards in Thursday's 23-20 win over the Cardinals. He returned two punts for 10 yards.

After scoring twice Week 3, the rookie fifth-round pick played just 36 percent of the offensive snaps Week 4 and was mostly left out of the passing game, as the Seahawks rolled out two tight ends on a majority of their snaps. He's still locked in as the team's No. 3 wide receiver, but the low pass volume makes it difficult to produce for fantasy purposes because WRs Jaxon Smith-Njigba and Cooper Kupp draw the bulk of the targets.

Kupp brought in four of five targets for 26 yards in the Seahawks' 23-20 win over the Cardinals on Thursday night.

Kupp tied Jaxon Smith-Njigba for the team lead in receptions and targets on a night when Sam Darnold spread the ball around to eight different pass catchers overall. However, the veteran wideout averaged just 6.5 yards per catch, but the fact he remains a clear No. 2 option in what is a mostly concentrated air attack will continue to afford Kupp a degree of fantasy value, especially in PPR formats. The veteran wideout will now have some extra time to gear up for a Week 5 home matchup against the Buccaneers on Sunday, Oct. 5.

Harrison secured six of 10 targets for 66 yards and a touchdown in the Cardinals' 23-20 loss to the Seahawks on Thursday night.

Harrison finished with a team-high yardage total while checking in second in receptions and targets to Trey McBride. The talented wideout also recorded his first touchdown grab since Week 1 on an impressive 16-yard catch in the left corner of the end zone against Devon Witherspoon with 5:50 remaining in the fourth quarter to narrow what had been a 20-6 deficit. Harrison's catch tally was also a season high, affording the 2024 first-round pick some momentum heading into a favorable Week 5 home matchup against the Titans on Sunday, Oct. 5.

Smith-Njigba brought in four of five targets for 79 yards in the Seahawks' 23-20 win over the Cardinals on Thursday night. He also rushed three times for 11 yards.

Smith-Njigba shockingly didn't make his first catch until 49 seconds remained in the third quarter, but he'd curiously logged three rush attempts by that point. The talented wideout's moonlighting came to an end down the stretch, however, as he contributed key receptions of 11, 36 and 22 yards in the fourth quarter. The latter catch positioned the Seahawks at the Cardinals' 40-yard line with 23 seconds remaining. Jason Myers would knock home a game-winning 52-yard field goal two plays later, and Smith-Njigba finished with a solid stat line after his night looked to be in danger of being a washout. Smith-Njigba has seen his reception and receiving yardage totals drop over that of the previous game in each of the last three contests, but he remains Sam Darnold's unquestioned No. 1 target heading into a Week 5 home matchup against the Buccaneers on Sunday, Oct. 5.

Fehoko (concussion) is out for the rest of Thursday night's game against the Seahawks, Lindsey Thiry of ESPN.com reports.

The wide receiver did not record a stat before exiting. Fehoko moved up to the active roster Sept. 10 and played on 29 special-teams snaps over the next two games. He did not see a snap on offense.

Pearsall (knee) was limited at practice Thursday, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.

Prior to sitting out Wednesday's practice due to a knee injury, Pearsall said that he'd be playing if there was a game, according to Jennifer Lee Chan of NBC Sports Bay Area. Pearsall's return to drills one day later sets him up to do just that Sunday versus the Jaguars, but he may still enter the weekend with a designation when the 49ers post their final Week 4 practice report Friday. If he's able to suit up, who between Brock Purdy (left shoulder/toe) and Mac Jones (knee) will be under center remains to be seen.
