49ers Rule Out Evans, Samuel and Kirk Against Raiders

The 49ers will be without three players for their Week 9 matchup with the Raiders: wide receiver Mike Evans, wide receiver Deebo Samuel and wide receiver Christian Kirk. Evans is set to miss his second straight game while dealing with Achilles tendinitis, and Samuel remains sidelined by a hamstring injury that has kept him out since Week 5.

Kirk injured his meniscus during practice this week. It remains unclear whether the injury involved a tear. It will be another game without him for San Francisco.

Evans’ Achilles problem began in the Week 5 game against Seattle. He did not practice in the lead-up to the next game, against Washington, but played in that matchup. The 49ers could be without him for multiple additional games, though no return date has been given.

Nick Bosa, Upton Stout, Demarcus Robinson and Nate Hobbs are questionable. Bosa has a calf injury, Stout a shoulder issue, Robinson an ankle injury and Hobbs a groin injury.

Coach Kyle Shanahan said Bosa has been cleared to play and that Robinson is likely to be activated from injured reserve. The team is still weighing Hobbs’ availability. No update was provided on Stout.
