"Deommodore Lenoir is good to go for the 49ers today against the Arizona Cardinals. Lenoir was listed as questionable Friday with a calf injury which happened in practice Thursday while jogging off the field. We'll find out more when we get an MRI, coach Kyle Shanahan said. Apparently, for a change, the news was good as Lenoir is expected to take his place as a starting cornerback opposite Renardo Green."
"with quarterback Brock Purdy (toe) and wide receiver Ricky Pearsall Jr. (knee) back on the field after having not played since Sept. 28 against Jacksonville. The 49ers had been concerned enough about Lenoir's status that they flexed cornerback Eli Apple from the practice squad Saturday, anticipating he may be needed as a backup with Darrell Luter Jr. starting in place of Lenoir. Instead, Apple finds himself on the inactive list a day after believing he might suit up to face the Cardinals."
Deommodore Lenoir is cleared to start at cornerback opposite Renardo Green after suffering a calf injury while jogging off the field in practice. An MRI was anticipated following the injury. Brock Purdy (toe) and Ricky Pearsall Jr. (knee) return to the lineup after last playing Sept. 28 against Jacksonville. The 49ers flexed Eli Apple from the practice squad but placed him on the inactive list when Lenoir was cleared. Clelin Ferrell was signed to the 53-man roster Saturday yet listed inactive along with several others, leaving the defensive line thinner than usual. Bryce Huff and Sam Okuayinonu are available as outside pass rushers, with Keion White and Robert Beal Jr. in reserve. Kalia Davis and Alfred Collins will start with Jordan Elliott and C.J. West in reserve. Marques Sigle is active after being a recent healthy scratch.
