00:00Let's talk about the injury update here, who's in, who's out, and how can it affect some

00:07of our play?

00:08Wow.

00:09Blanketing a multitude of sins, that feels like a little bit of pressure here, but maybe

00:15appropriate for the injury report, I don't know.

00:18Mike Evans with a hamstring, he is going to be out for today.

00:20We already mentioned Chris Godwin out for the year, so what happens here?

00:23Sterling Shepard to the slot receiver spot here, a veteran, as Matt mentioned before,

00:27Jalen McMillan gets more work.

00:29Also Rashad White going to probably get more work too.

00:32Rashad White looked really good.

00:33I think he's a guy that realizes he's fighting for his job, Bucky Irving, Tucker, like all

00:37these guys were having some moments and Rashad White was kind of on the outside looking in.

00:41I think he woke up and realized that.

00:43We also saw him breaking some tackles last week, which is not a metric he's been really

00:45good at.

00:47So a lot of positives there.

00:49We mentioned Jaden Daniels is going to be a game time decision, so we'll wait on that.

00:52The good news is though, from the quarterback perspective, you are getting to a tongue of

00:55my lower back.

00:56He is going to play today.

00:57We'll keep you updated on the rest of that grouping.

00:59Tajie Spears though, downgraded to out for week eight.

01:03So what does this mean?

01:04Tony Power is going to have his full run of the backfield against the Lions.

01:08Now they're going to be playing from behind, you would imagine, but Tony Power is still

01:11a really good guy catching the football in the backfield.

01:13So you're starting him and you are going forward.

01:16The Giants with a couple injuries on the defensive side too.

01:19Dexter Lawrence with that hip was removed from the injury report.

01:21That's good.

01:22He has been terrific.

01:24He has been worthy of defensive player of the year recognition.

01:27He is still far behind TJ Watt for that award because the Giants haven't been good, but

01:31it's not his fault.

01:32When a guy plays on the defensive line and is getting sacked the way he is, that's somebody

01:37you really need to give more credit to.

01:38Also Brian Burns in that game was removed for the injury report.

01:41So the Giants defense looking much better against the Steelers potentially in week eight,

01:45much healthier.

01:47We also mentioned that Dalvin Cook has been elevated from the practice squad.

01:50How he works into this offense, we don't quite know yet, but some of these other offenses

01:55too are going to be without pieces.

01:58We're going to get to some more of those guys in just a second, but Juwan Jennings also

02:01not available along with Brendan Ayuk and Deebo Samuel in question, which means Ricky

02:06Pearsall could be a streamer this week that you could plug and play.

02:10It has boomer bust potential in it.

02:12Ricky Pearsall did make some, some plays in the last game we saw against the Kansas City

02:17Chiefs.

02:18Again, the schedule of the 49ers is not being kind right now.

02:21They're going to get the Dallas Cowboys, another playoff team from last year.

02:25Ricky Pearsall, some good and some bad, some rookie mistakes in there too.

02:28A great story that he's been able to recover and get back on the field, but the 49ers right

02:33now from a health perspective are shaky to say the least.
