INJURIES
Set for Sunday Dugger (knee) does not have any injury designation ahead of Sunday's game against the Falcons.
Impact Dugger started Week 7 prep with consecutive limited practices before upgrading to a full participant in Friday's session. The strongside linebacker is all set to suit up for Sunday's game against the Falcons opposite Dre Greenlaw.

Limited participant Wednesday Dugger (knee) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice, Harrison Rich of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.
Impact Dugger appears to have picked up a knee injury in the 49ers' Week 6 win over the Commanders. The strongside linebacker's ability to practice in the first Week 7 prep session is a strong sign that he should be able to suit up for Sunday's contest against the Falcons. Dugger will likely need to upgrade to full participation by Friday's session to avoid any injury designation ahead of Sunday's game.

OCTOBER 21 • Associated Press
Team-leading 11 stops in Week 6 win Dugger tallied 11 tackles (eight solo) during the 49ers' 23-17 win over the Commanders on Monday.
Impact Dugger was listed as a starter for the third time this season, and the rookie fifth-rounder led the 49ers in tackles while playing 64 of 67 defensive snaps (95.5 percent). He looks to be the favored option as the team's third starting linebacker alongside veterans Fred Warner and Dre Greenlaw. San Francisco will hit the road for Week 7 against Atlanta on Oct. 25.
