SANTA CLARA, Calif. -- San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Mike Evans is questionable for Sunday's game against the Denver Broncos and will be a game-time decision, according to coach Kyle Shanahan. Evans, a limited participant in Friday's practice after missing Wednesday and Thursday, said he is giving his best to play despite a painful rib injury.
"It's my job," Evans said. "I take pride in trying to suit up every chance I get. If the injury isn't unbearable and you can't play through it, then I won't play. But if there's something I can play through, I'm going to be there for my team."
Evans suffered the injury in the first half of last week's win against the Arizona Cardinals. He said it felt like "somebody stabbed me in my chest" and he left the game on a cart. He previously played through a rib injury in November 2022 with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
The Niners ruled out defensive end Nick Bosa (calf), defensive tackle James Thompson Jr. (ankle) and defensive lineman Mykel Williams (knee). Linebacker Dre Greenlaw (quad) and defensive lineman Keion White (hamstring) are questionable.
