Rotowire
Stout (shoulder) was only active as an emergency depth option during Sunday's loss to the Falcons, David Lombardi of SFStandard.com reported Monday.

49ers' Nick Bosa: Could return after Week 8 bye
Rotowire
Head coach Kyle Shanahan indicated Monday that Bosa (knee) "has a chance" to return following the 49ers' Week 8 bye, David Lombardi of SFStandard.com reports.
A lingering knee injury has sidelined Bosa for each of the 49ers' last five games. He has yet to return to practice, but with San Francisco on extra rest thanks to the bye, the veteran pass rusher could be available for Week 9 against Las Vegas on Sunday, Nov. 8. Bosa's return would mean less rotational defensive snaps available for Romello Height, Mykel Williams, Ogbo Okoronkwo and Khalid Kareem.

49ers' Luke Gifford: Won't play against Atlanta
Rotowire
Gifford (groin) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Falcons.
Gifford didn't practice during Week 7 prep due to a groin injury he picked up against the Commanders in Week 6. The 49ers have a bye for Week 8, so his next chance to play is Week 9 against the Raiders on Sunday, Nov. 8. Garrett Wallow (hamstring) is also out, so Tatum Bethune is currently the lone depth option at linebacker ahead of Sunday's contest.

49ers' Upton Stout: Questionable for Sunday
Rotowire
Stout (shoulder) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Falcons.
Stout logged consecutive DNPs to begin Week 7 prep before upgrading to a limited participant in Friday's session. The last-minute practice participation has given the cornerback a chance to recover from his AC Joint issues in time for Sunday's contest, but it remains uncertain if the 24-year-old will suit up. If Stout cannot play, Ashtyn Davis will likely start at slot cornerback in his place.

Rotowire
Sigle (ankle) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's game against the Falcons.
Sigle managed to upgrade to a limited participant in Friday's practice after missing consecutive sessions to start Week 7 prep. The strong safety's last-minute upgrade in participation level was not enough to enable him to suit up for Sunday's game, leaving Malik Mustapha as a starter in the 49ers' secondary for a third consecutive week.

49ers' Nick Bosa: Won't play Sunday
Rotowire
Bosa (knee) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's game against the Falcons.
Coach Kyle Shanahan stated that Bosa was "a little too optimistic" with his statement that he would be back before the bye, David Lombardi of SFStandard.com reported Friday. The defensive end's chances to play were also diminished because Sunday's game in Atlanta is played on artificial turf. Bosa will continue to recover in anticipation of the 49ers' Week 9 matchup with the Raiders.

49ers' Nick Bosa: Remains sidelined at practice
Rotowire
Bosa (calf) did not participate at the 49ers' practice Thursday, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.
Bosa was unable to practice for the second straight day to open the week as he continues to work his way back from a calf injury that has sidelined him since Week 2. The defensive lineman is all but guaranteed to miss a fifth straight game Sunday versus the Falcons, but the team expressed optimism that Bosa could return to action Nov. 8 against the Raiders, per Matt Zenitz of CBSSports.com.
Dugger (knee) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice, Harrison Rich of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.
Dugger appears to have picked up a knee injury in the 49ers' Week 6 win over the Commanders. The strongside linebacker's ability to practice in the first Week 7 prep session is a strong sign that he should be able to suit up for Sunday's contest against the Falcons. Dugger will likely need to upgrade to full participation by Friday's session to avoid any injury designation ahead of Sunday's game.

49ers' Mykel Williams: Doesn't practice Wednesday
Rotowire
Williams (knee) did not participate in Wednesday's practice, Harrison Rich of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.
Williams likely sustained his knee injury in the 49ers' Week 6 win over the Commanders on Monday night. It is unclear how significant the defensive end's issue is. Still, he will need to achieve some level of practice participation by Friday to have any hope of suiting up for Sunday's game against the Falcons.

Dugger was listed as a starter for the third time this season, and the rookie fifth-rounder led the 49ers in tackles while playing 64 of 67 defensive snaps (95.5 percent).

49ers' Upton Stout: Still bothered by shoulder issue
Rotowire
Head coach Kyle Shanahan told reporters Tuesday that Stout's removal from Monday's 23-17 win over the Commanders was due to an AC sprain in his shoulder, David Lombardi of SFStandard.com reports.
Stout's practice reps during Week 6 prep were limited due to his shoulder injury. He was cleared to play Monday but was hampered by his injury, which led to Shanahan replacing Stout with Ashtyn Davis. Stout's practice participation over the coming days will provide some clarity on his status for Sunday's road game against the Falcons.
