Both are expected to play, according to ESPN’s Adam Schefter.

In three games this season, McBride has 14 receptions for 122 yards.

Kittle was also questionable to play with a rib injury. He is also expected to suit up. He has missed one game this season. In three games played, he has 15 receptions for 162 yards and two touchdowns.

Trey McBride’s availability in question with rib injury

The Cardinals downgraded him from having no injury designation to being questionable with an injury to his ribs.

Arizona Cardinals tight end Trey McBride appeared set to play on Sunday in Week 5 after missing Week 4 in concussion protocol. That might have changed. While he has cleared concussion protocol, the Cardinals downgraded McBride to questionable for the game with an injury to his ribs.

McBride was a full participant in practice on Friday but must have had something come up with his ribs afterward.

He apparently traveled with the team so his still could play, but with new NFL rules about injury reporting, they had to disclose it.

In three games this season, McBride has 14 receptions for 122 yards. In his absence last week, the Cardinals suffered their worst loss under head coach Jonathan Gannon, a 42-14 defeat to the Washington Commanders.

The Cardinals and 49ers kick off Sunday at 1:05 p.m. Arizona time.
