While the Green Bay Packers deal with COVID-19 and injury-related issues at running back, the San Francisco 49ers are trying to find enough wide receivers to play in the game. Maybe receivers coach Wes Welker wouldn't mind suiting up.

I could list the unavailable receivers heading into the Thursday-night showdown, but it may be faster to name the healthy and available ones. So here we go.

Trent Taylor.

Done.

That's it. He's the team's top wide-receiver option, as of this post. Richie James Jr. may be available too. He was listed as "questionable" due to an ankle injury, though.

Deebo Samuel was already ruled out due to a hamstring injury when teammate Kendrick Bourne tested positive for COVID-19. Contact tracing landed Samuel on the reserve/COVID-19 list with Bourne. Joining them are rookie receiver Brandon Aiyuk and left tackle Trent Williams.

The 49ers waived Dante Pettis on Tuesday. Maybe they should have waited a few days.

The 49ers have three healthy receivers on the practice squad. One is former first-round pick Kevin White. The other two are (checks list) Chris Finke and River Cracraft. Are you not sure who they are? No one is really going to blame you, but expect at least two of them to be promoted for Thursday night's game.

There was rookie Jauan Jennings, but he recently landed on injured reserve because ... well ... 2020.
