SANTA CLARA — Neither Nick Bosa nor Trent Williams practiced for a third straight week, and that’s not great news for a 49ers team trying to shake a three-game losing streak in Sunday’s homecoming against the Chicago Bears. Bosa was able to show enough progress to not be ruled out Friday, but he is doubtful. Williams officially is out, as are running back Jordan Mason, linebacker Dre Greenlaw and safety George Odum. While Bosa has been sidelined since a third-quarter oblique strain Nov. 17 against Seattle, Williams’ hiatus is traced. mainly to an ankle injury but he’s also been coping with personal issues after his son was stillborn Nov. 24. Cornerback Charvarius Ward did not practice Friday because of a personal matter; he played last Sunday in Buffalo in his first game since the Oct. 28 death of his 23-month-old daughter. Ward is still expected to play Sunday, although the 49ers understandably could excuse him amid his grieving. Left guard Aaron Banks is questionable, having missed the 38-10 loss at Buffalo because of a concussion from the loss to Seattle. Safety Talanoa Hufanga is also questionable after returning to practice this week as the 49ers evaluate whether to activate him off Injured Reserve. RUNNING BACK OPTIONS Isaac Guerendo looks in line to start at running back, with Patrick Taylor Jr. as the next-best option, while the 49ers move past last Sunday’s season-ending injuries to Christian McCaffrey (knee) and Mason (ankle). The 49ers put McCaffrey back on Injured Reserve on Tuesday, having spent eight weeks on IR with Achilles tendinitis before his Nov. 9 activation. Mason is expected to move onto IR on Saturday. For further depth, Israel Abanikanda was claimed off waivers from the New York Jets, and Ke’Shawn Vaughn as re-signed to the practice squad. PURDY ALL CLEAR Two weeks since missing the 49ers’ 38-10 loss at Green Bay because of a shoulder injury, quarterback Brock Purdy had no setbacks in his return last Sunday at Buffalo and is full-go for this game. “He’s good. He had to wait a while give him rest and make sure it healed,” Shanahan said. “Glad to get him back to full speed and get him back to practice.” BEARS INJURIES Bears running back D’Andre Swift and wide receiver D.J. Moore are both questionable after quadriceps injuries forced them to miss back-to-back practices before Friday’s limited return. Center Ryan Bates (concussion) and safety Elijah Hicks (ankle) are out. Swift’s backup, Roschon Johnson, will not play because of a concussion. Wide receiver Keenan Allen (ankle) is fully expected to play despite missing Wednesday’s practice.

Said Bears defensive coordinator Eric Washington: “Deebo Samuel, he’s a very versatile player, can play multiple positions: Tailback, slot, wide receiver. He’s the key to everything they desire to do.” Samuel has not unlocked the 49ers offense, either as a wide receiver (38 catches, 531 yards, one touchdown) or a running back (27 carries, 79 yards, one touchdown). HALL OF FAME COMPLIMENT In the wake of McCaffrey’s season-ending knee injury, he wrote an extensive message on Instagram this week depicting his love for the game, and it won the admiration of general manager John Lynch. “That deal he wrote was beautiful,” Lynch said on KNBR 680-AM. “I told him, ‘Hey you wrote your Hall of Fame speech, or an excerpt for it.’ He encompassed what football is all about and why we all love it, as much as anybody I’ve ever heard.” McCaffrey’s words on Wednesday: “Football is the greatest game on the planet to me. I love that you can find out exactly who you are without ever saying a word. It lifts you up and breaks you down and it can happen fast. It’s humbling in the best ways. You can do everything right and still fail. Thats life and that’s football. It’s a constant test of wills and those who just keep going tend to reap the benefits of their perseverance. This wasn’t my year, and sometimes when it rains, it pours. You can feel sorry for yourself and listen to the birds, or you can hold the line. I’m grateful for the support of everyone in my corner and promise I’ll work smarter and harder than ever to come back better from this. I love my teammates, I love the 9ers, and I love football. God doesn’t miss. Onward ➡️🙏🏼”Jackson State tops Southern 41-13, wins SWAC Championship and berth in Celebration Bowl

Lil Wayne, GloRilla, Camila Cabello to perform at College Football National ChampionshipThe bells of Notre Dame Cathedral rang on Saturday evening in Paris for the first time since a fire devastated the Paris landmark in 2019. Paris Archbishop Laurent Ulrich began the ceremony by knocking three times on the cathedral's door with his staff, called a crozier, which was made from one of the burned beams of the cathedral's roof. The ceremony to mark the cathedral's return to religious services was attended by French President Emmanuel Macron and hundreds of dignitaries, including U.S. President-elect Donald Trump , first lady Jill Biden, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, and the U.K.'s Prince William. The cathedral's restoration and return to service after five years has been a success for Macron, who has had recent political difficulties . Copyright 2024 NPR
Liberals were apoplectic over Pete Hegseth’s patriotic and Christian tattoos, which include the Jerusalem cross and the Latin phrase Deus Vult, after Donald Trump tapped the veteran and Fox News host to helm the Pentagon. Would I ever get a Jerusalem cross on my chest or “We The People” on my forearm? No, of course not. I would look like a complete goon. Neither would liberals. But let’s imagine the kinds of tattoos Democrats and our favorite cable news personalities would get if they were so inclined. Rumor has it that many of the most prominent figures in politics and media have already taken the plunge and received their permanent ink. ( Click HERE to sign up for Mr. Right’s weekly newsletter) Ka-ma-la We all know Kamala Harris was drowning her sorrows with wine after her loss to Donald Trump. Heavy pours. I wouldn’t be shocked if she’s been polishing off at least two bottles of Whispering Angel rosé per day since early November. She might’ve been mixing wine with something more potent, say, edibles. If she were to get a drunken (and/or crossfaded) tattoo, there’s only one design befitting a corporate girl boss of her stature: the classic blue butterfly, a symbol of beauty, rebirth, and transformation. (Stream Daily Caller’s latest documentary ‘Cleaning Up Kamala’ HERE) Mayor Pete Pete Buttigieg is a lover and logistics man, first and foremost. But he also loves trains. He’s a trains guy. He loves taking long train rides and short ones, too. I have a sneaking suspicion Mayor Pete has the outline of a black heart on his wrist, to indicate that he wears his heart on his sleeve, and a much larger Thomas the Tank Engine tattoo on his lower back that appears to be chugging along down south. Russia Rachel Rachel Maddow, what a gal! Rachel is crazy about all things Russian . And in all likelihood, she still believes the Kremlin has microchipped Donald Trump’s brain and turned him into Putin’s little puppet. For someone as infatuated with the words “collusion,” “dossier” and “Steele” as her, it’s only fitting she would get the entire Steele Dossier — and I mean the entirety, every last salacious, baseless detail against Trump — neatly printed on her back in a typewriter font. The h ighly decorated and honorable retired U.S. Army Lieutenant Colonel, Alexander Vindman Alexander Vindman, one of Ukraine and the Deep State’s favorite dancing monkeys, is said to have a tattoo of his beloved and dear leader, Volodymyr Zelenskyy, on his chest. He also has small, tasteful sunflower tattoos up and down both his arms. The sunflower is a cherished symbol in Ukraine and has been adopted as a sign of global resistance to Russia and Putin. Such a brave tattoo, so courageous. Sandy Cortez According to legend, when Sandy Cortez was attending Boston University — yes, she somehow got a college degree — she and her fellow pinko communists all got matching Che Guevara tattoos at a parlor in Dorchester, the working man’s neighborhood. Notably, the tattoos were in red ink. Not black, red . They said it was an act of collective rebellion against the capitalist oppressors, and I believe them. Mr. Potato Head Lovingly known as “ Jeff Zucker’s water boy ,” Brian Stelter was devastated when CNN president Jeff Zucker resigned in 2022. You can almost picture the CNN newsroom the day Zucker called it quits — it must’ve been like the iconic scene from “Dead Poets Society,” when the students stand up on the desks as Robin Williams departs his classroom for the final time. “O Captain! My Captain!” Stelter shouted out as he struggled to lift himself onto the top of his desk to catch one final glimpse of the man, the myth, the CNN legend. It is rumored that on the very same day Zucker resigned, Stelter walked to a dirty tattoo parlor in the Lower East Side and got a giant heart with Zucker’s name inside on his left bicep. “It’s perfect,” he apparently whispered to the tattoo artist. Big Bomber Bolton Heeeeere’s Johnny! John Bolton, America’s favorite mustached, draft-dodging warmonger , is said to have a giant tattoo of a bomb on his thigh. He is also considering an even bigger tattoo, some photo-realistic ink of Major Kong from “Dr. Strangelove” riding the nuke down to his glorious demise. If our lame duck president, Joe Biden, manages to drag America into a third world war, Bolton has promised to get Biden’s full name, including the middle one,” Robinette,” inked on his butt. That’s how much war, death and destruction mean to Big Bomber Bolton. This article is satire. Did you enjoy this post? Consider checking out John’s full weekly newsletter, Mr. Right, available here: MrRight.DailyCaller.comSeven losses in a season is unfamiliar territory for the San Francisco 49ers. With two Super Bowl appearances in five seasons, general manager John Lynch openly admits the 49ers haven't earned the right to be called "as good" as the 2023 NFC championship group. San Francisco is 5-7 but only two games behind NFC West-leading Seattle with five games remaining as the Chicago Bears (4-8) arrive Sunday. "I've found the whole discussion on Kyle rather comical," Lynch said in an interview Friday with KNBR in San Francisco. "We have won four of the last five division championships. We've been to two Super Bowls. The standard here is to win championships, and we've fallen short of that, I understand. "But we have an excellent head coach, and the fact that people are talking about stuff like that, I do find it comical. We're 100 percent behind Kyle and what he brings to our organization. Like I said, our focus is really on the Bears and doing everything we can. That's where Kyle's focus is, and that's where all our focus is." San Francisco lost 35-10 in the snow at Buffalo last Sunday night and the 49ers placed their top two running backs on injured reserve due to injuries in that game. Christian McCaffrey (knee) and Jordan Mason (ankle) could return for Week 18 at Arizona if the 49ers are still fighting for a playoff spot. In a top-down ranking of NFC teams by record and playoff position, the 49ers are No. 11 entering Week 14. "You are what your record says you are in this league, and that isn't very good. So I think we've been through a lot as a team, this current team with a lot of stuff that has happened to members of our organization. Injuries, tragic circumstances, ultimately those are just excuses. One thing I can tell you is I'm proud of how this group has stuck together, had each other's back. The other thing I can tell you is the story's not written yet. We're still grinding, and we're still playing." The 49ers last missed the postseason in 2020 with a record of 6-10 that followed an appearance in the Super Bowl -- San Francisco's first title game loss of two to the Kansas City Chiefs. San Francisco's upcoming schedule after Sunday includes a short week before playing the division rival Rams on Thursday, at Miami (Dec. 22), a Monday night matchup with the Detroit Lions on Dec. 30 and the finale against the Cardinals. --Field Level Media
