Out this week Bartch (elbow) won't be available for Saturday's preseason game against Las Vegas, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Bartch suffered the injury in practice Tuesday, just a couple of weeks after being activated from the active/non-football injury list with a quadriceps issue. The 27-year-old is in line to be San Francisco's starting left guard alongside left tackle Trent Williams, but Bartch's injury history could be a cause for concern. He has only appeared in 21 games over the last three seasons, being placed on the injured reserve in 2022 with a knee injury and in 2024 with a high-ankle sprain.

Regardless of where it happened, the injury does not appear to be serious.
