The San Francisco 49ers play in primetime in Week 7, and should be more motivated than ever to come away with a win.
Christian McCaffrey is active for Monday’s game against the Minnesota Vikings. Left tackle Trent Williams and wide receiver Deebo Samuel are not.
The 49ers are coming off their first loss of the season, a surprising last-second defeat at the hands of the Cleveland Browns. San Francisco had a shot to win the game in the final moments, but rookie kicker Jake Moody missed a game-winning field goal with seconds left to play.
The team will be looking to bounce back against a struggling Vikings club that sits at just 2-4. Minnesota hasn’t lived up to last season’s success, though it’s coming off a win against the lowly Chicago Bears.
Kirk Cousins and crew should face a much tougher task this week with the 49ers’ defense coming to town. It could prove far more difficult for the Vikings’ offense to move the ball, especially without star receiver Justin Jefferson.
