49ers Alfred Morris Jersey , San Francisco 49ers rookie wide receiver Dante Pettis is slated for his first NFL start.Coach Kyle Shanahan made that announcement Friday after Goodwin missed the entire week of practice with a bruised thigh suffered in last week's loss at Minnesota.Pettis, a second-round pick out of Washington who caught a 22-yard touchdown pass against the Vikings, will start opposite veteran Pierre Garcon. Another rookie, seventh-round pick Richie James Jr., will be added to the 53-man active roster after being inactive in the opener.Trent Taylor and Kendrick Bourne are likely to round out the receivers rotation in the 49ers' home opener against the Lions.Pettis, the son of former Gold Glove outfielder Gary Pettis, is a colorful character who sports dyed blue hair. He also unveiled quite the touchdown dance against Minnesota http://www.49erscheapshops.com/cheap-authentic-marquise-goodwin-jersey , making like a cat licking its paws and cleaning its head, after he hauled in his first career scoring pass from Jimmy Garoppolo."I think he's very relaxed and very confident being himself all the time," Shanahan said. "That's why he's OK with his cat celebration. Stuff doesn't bother him. He is who he is. He goes out there that first game, I don't think it was too big for him."Things remain unsettled for San Francisco at right guard, with Joshua Garnett (dislocated toe) out for Sunday and Mike Person (foot strain) questionable. Should Person be unavailable, Shanahan said undrafted rookie Najee Toran will draw the start. It's quite a rise up the depth chart for Toran, who played at UCLA but was not invited to the NFL combine before eventually signing with the 49ers as a free agent.Person will be a game-day decision.Toran said his height (6-foot-2) always was a concern for those evaluating him."Everybody had the typical answers: 'You're kind of small Cheap Ahkello Witherspoon Jersey ,' and things like that," Toran said. "To me it's not a big deal. I just look at it like my heart's the size of you name it. My heart's big. That's what's going to take me a long way, which it has."Toran briefly switched from the offensive to defensive line at UCLA before settling in as a starting guard and earning honorable mention All Pac-12 honors as a senior. If he plays Sunday, it won't be his first game at Levi's Stadium. The Bruins played Nebraska in the 2015 Foster Farms Bowl at the 49ers' home venue.In other injury news for San Francisco, free safety Adrian Colbert and linebacker Malcolm Smith remain questionable with hamstring injuries. Should Colbert be unavailable, Jimmie Ward may slide over from cornerback to take his place. Elijah Lee likely would start in place of Smith, who has been sidelined since the preseason opener.NOTES: Lions coach Matt Patricia was asked Friday about an NFL Network report that suggested some of his players have been displeased with his handling of the team. "I don't really acknowledge outside rumors or gossip or anything that doesn't have anything to (do) with our football team http://www.49erscheapshops.com/cheap-authentic-george-kittle-jersey ," Patricia said on a conference call with Bay Area media. "We're a tight football team. We do a lot of great conversing inside this building and have open conversation about things that are bothering us." The San Francisco 49ers formally placed Raheem Mostert on injured reserve, and they made a couple other moves. The team placed cornerback Emmanuel Moseley on injured reserve a day after promoting him from the practice squad. They also signed quarterback Tom Savage a day after releasing him.Mostert broke his arm on a rushing attempt, while Moseley suffered a dislocated shoulder on a special teams play. Head coach Kyle Shanahan announced that Mostert had surgery on Friday, and Moseley will have surgery on Tuesday.The decision to re-sign Savage is an intriguing one. They once again have three quarterbacks, and one has to wonder what the plan is with Nick Mullens. If he starts next week against the New York Giants ahead of C.J. beathard, does Savage get released to make room elsewhere?The 49ers currently have a free roster spot, so it’s hard to tell what exactly the plan is. The players are off through Monday http://www.49erscheapshops.com/cheap-authentic-laken-tomlinson-jersey , and will return to the facility on Tuesday to prepare for the Giants. The 49ers will need to add a running back at some point. They have Jeff Wilson and Matt Dayes on the practice squad, and one of them is likely to be promoted. They also signed cornerback Greg Mabin and wide receiver Victor Bolden to the practice after releasing them during the week. Both are candidates for promotion to the 53-man roster.
