Coach Kyle Shanahan said Monday that Jones is day-to-day after aggravating a PCL sprain in his left knee during Sunday's 16-15 win against the Cardinals, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.

Jones got another spot start for Brock Purdy (left shoulder/toe) in Week 3, completing 27 of 41 passes for 284 yards, one touchdown and one interception and losing one yard on his only carry. Late in the contest, though, Jones was visibly hobbled, and he told reporters afterward about the lingering knee issue, per Ian Rapoport of NFL Network. Meanwhile, Shanahan also relayed to Wagoner on Monday that Purdy will resume practicing this week after doing so in a limited fashion last week. The 49ers likely will roll with whoever is healthiest among Purdy and Jones on Sunday against the Jaguars considering practice-squad member Adrian Martinez currently is the only other QB in San Francisco that's eligible to be on the active roster for game days.

Coach Kyle Shanahan confirmed Monday that Bosa is out for the season with an ACL injury, Cam Inman of The San Jose Mercury News reports.

Per Matt Barrows of The Athletic, Shanahan noted that there was no additional damage to Bosa's knee beyond an ACL tear, but the star defensive end nonethless faces a lengthy recovery period. In Bosa's absence, Bryce Huff, Mykel Williams and Yetur Gross-Matos are candidates to see added roles in the 49ers defense going forward, according to Vic Tafur, Dianna Russini and Matt Barrows of The Athletic.

Coach Kyle Shanahan said Monday that Purdy (left shoulder/toe) will resume practicing Wednesday, at which point the 49ers will evaluate him to see if he'll be ready to return Sunday against the Jaguars, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.

Purdy was able to practice last week in a limited fashion after sitting out Week 2 due to a turf toe variant and also an AC joint sprain in his left shoulder, but he was listed as questionable for this past Sunday's game versus the Cardinals and eventually ruled out. Mac Jones got another spot start under center and completed 27 of 41 passes for 284 yards, one touchdown and one interception, but he also aggravated a PCL sprain in his left knee and is considered day-to-day, as Shanahan told Wagoner. With San Francisco's top two quarterbacks in limbo ahead of Week 4 action, how Purdy fares as the week goes on likely will be the determining factor for who Shanahan calls upon Sunday.

Bland (foot) is on track to play against the Packers in Week 4, Todd Archer of ESPN.com reports.

Bland has missed the Cowboys' last two games due to a foot injury that he suffered in Week 1. There's optimism that the 2022 fifth-rounder could return this Sunday, and his practice participation over the coming week will indicate his chances of returning. Bland's return would be a welcome one for a Cowboys defense that has been gashed by the Giants and Bears over the last two weeks.

Robinson's suspension has been lifted by the NFL, which sets the stage for the wideout to be available for Sunday's game against the Jaguars, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

With Brandon Aiyuk (knee) on the reserve/PUP list and Jauan Jennings (ankle/shoulder) having missed Sunday's 16-15 win over the Cardinals, Robinson -- in his return from a three-game suspension -- has a path to an immediate role in a 49ers wideout corps that was led by Ricky Pearsall in Week 3 and also includes Kendrick Bourne, Marquez Valdes-Scantling and Skyy Moore. In 17 regular-season contests with the Rams in 2024, Robinson compiled a 31-505-7 line on 64 targets. It's possible that Robinson is eased back into the mix this weekend, but looking ahead he may end up garnering enough snaps and targets to merit attention in deeper fantasy formats.

Coach Jonathan Gannon said Monday that Jones emerged from Sunday's loss in San Francisco with a concussion, Theo Mackie of The Arizona Republic reports.

Gannon added that the injury occurred on the Cardinals' last offensive play, which was a Kyler Murray deep shot to Jones at the two-minute warning. Jones logged 33 of 66 snaps on offense Week 3 en route to two catches (on three targets) for 25 yards. With a short week to prepare for Thursday's game against the Seahawks, he'll likely be hard-pressed to make his way through the protocol for head and injuries and suit up for Week 4 action.

Coach Jonathan Gannon said Monday that Conner will undergo season-ending foot surgery, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.

Conner exited Sunday's loss at San Francisco early in the third quarter with what initially was termed an ankle injury, which was severe enough for Adam Schefter of ESPN to report that the running back's 2025 campaign was over. Now that Conner's coach has confirmed as much as well as the true nature of the injury, he'll end the season with 32 carries for 95 yards and one touchdown and eight catches (on nine targets) for 38 yards and another score in three games. Trey Benson is expected to lead Arizona's backfield moving forward, but Emari Demercado also should get the occasional rep on game days.

Addison's suspension has been lifted by the NFL, which paves the way for the wideout to be available for Sunday's game against the Steelers, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

Addison was suspended for the first three games of the 2025 regular season for violating the league's Substances of Abuse Policy, but the 2023 first-rounder is now poised to return to action this weekend against the Steelers. The wideout thus is on track to resume practicing this week and should have an immediate opportunity to reclaim his key role in a Minnesota WR corps led by Justin Jefferson. Addison's looming return figures to impact the fantasy upside of Jalen Nailor and Adam Thielen but will provide a boost to a passing attack that was helmed by QB Carson Wentz in Week 3 and likely will be for at least another week. In 15 regular-season games last year, Addison logged a 63-875-9 line on 99 targets.

The Eagles claimed Gipson off waivers Monday, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

Gipson was waived by the Giants on Saturday, but he'll remain in the NFC East as a member of the Eagles. His addition gives the Eagles' wide-receiver corps an additional body, which is timely given Darius Cooper's shoulder injury during Sunday's 33-26 win over the Rams. Gipson's main contribution since entering the league in 2023 has been as a returner, and he could find a prominent role on special teams given the rule changes to kickoffs.

When discussing Lamb (ankle) Monday, coach Brian Schottenheimer said it "looks like he's gonna miss some time," while noting that it's "unlikely" that the wideout will play Sunday against the Packers, Jon Machota of The Athletic reports.

Per Todd Archer of ESPN.com, Lamb is reportedly dealing with a high left ankle sprain and could miss 3-to-4 weeks, but for now the Cowboys have yet to officially rule out the wideout for Week 4 action. For any length of time Lamb is sidelined, added snaps behind George Pickens and Jalen Tolbert will be available for KaVontae Turpin and Ryan Flournoy.
