San Francisco DT Arik Armstead was one of three 49ers players listed out for Sunday’s matchup against the Seattle Seahawks.
Armstead missed multiple practices leading up to the team’s 42-19 win over the Eagles foot and knee issues but was able to play. He finished the game with only one tackle.
Also listed out for Sunday are tight end Ross Dwelley (ankle) and wide receiver Ray-Ray McCloud (rib). Coach Kyle Shanahan said McCloud “didn’t feel great” after practicing earlier this week, so the team is being safe with him.
Spencer Burford, Elijah Mitchell and Darell Luter Jr. are listed as doubtful ahead of #SEAvsSF.

READ MORE FROM SACTOWN SPORTS: Geno Smith and Kenneth Walker III among 8 Seahawks questionable vs 49ers
On the Seattle side, quarterback Geno Smith is listed as questionable for Sunday’s game with a groin injury this week. He did not participate in Friday’s practice. Whether the veteran QB is able to go or not does not change the 49ers’s game plan.
“All our prep work is pretty much done. Similar style quarterbacks doesn’t change the scheme much, so it wouldn’t change anything regardless,” Shanahan said Friday.
Upcoming schedule for Arik Armstead and the 49ers:
- Sunday, Dec. 10th vs. Seattle Seahawks – 1:05 p.m. PST
- Sunday, Dec. 17th @ Arizona Cardinals – 1:05 p.m. PST
