Will start for SF on Sunday Colby (groin) is active for Sunday's Week 3 clash against the Cardinals, Briana Jeannel of the 49ers' official site reports.

Impact Colby dealt with a groin injury late this week but will be able to suit up in the NFC West battle Sunday. He'll draw the start at left guard in place of Ben Bartch (ankle), who landed on injured reserve Wednesday.

SEPTEMBER 21, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Status in question for Sunday Colby (groin) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Cardinals, Briana Jeannel of the 49ers' official site reports.

Impact Colby was set for the first start in place of Ben Bartch (ankle), who was placed on injured reserve this week, but the former was limited by a groin injury at Friday's practice. When asked who would sub in for Colby if he can't go Sunday, coach Kyle Shanahan said, "It could be Drew Moss. It could be Nick Zakelj." Moss is on the active roster, while Zakelj is on the practice squad, so for him to be an option this weekend, he'll need to be elevated or signed outright to the 53-man. Ultimately, a decision on Colby's status will be made about 90 minutes before a 4:25 p.m. ET kickoff.
