Timo Werner - On bench Saturday Werner (not injury related) is on the bench for the MLS week two fixture versus Atlanta United.

Impact Werner finalized his work visa paperwork during the week and is expected to make his Earthquakes debut as a substitute Saturday before earning a starting role over Preston Judd. The star forward will look to rack up shooting numbers as soon as he's on the pitch, and he should be the team's best attacking threat in a striker position.

Ronaldo Vieira - Out with lower-body injury Vieira is out for the time being due to a lower-body injury, according to the MLS injury report.

Impact Vieira will miss the call in the second match of the season, as the midfielder was taken off the field in the opener with an injury. Unfortunately, the club will lose a starter for the time being. That said, Jonathan Gonzalez is a possible replacement while he is out, along with Ian Harkes.

Timo Werner - Expected to play Saturday Werner did the necessary for his visa Tuesday in Berlin and is expected to be an option for Saturday's clash against Atlanta United, according to Leipziger Volkszeitung.

Impact Werner was unavailable for Saturday's season opener against Sporting Kansas City while waiting on his work visa, but that hurdle now appears to be cleared after the former Leipzig star finalized his paperwork in Berlin on Tuesday. With the off-field situation resolved, the new San Jose striker is trending toward making his debut and could log his first minutes for the club in Saturday's matchup against Atlanta United.

Niko Tsakiris - Attempts 21 crosses Tsakiris had one shot (zero on goal), 21 crosses (six accurate) and 15 corners in Saturday's 3-0 win against Sporting Kansas City.

Impact 2025 was a lost year for Tsakiris, who barely logged more than 10 appearances during last year's MLS season. Looking for a far better output in 2026, he wasted little time getting off the ground. In his 11-game 2025, Tsakiris logged 22 crosses, and he was only one short of tying the tally for Saturday's game against Sporting Kansas City. Even more impressively, his six accurate crosses this weekend are more than last season's four, meaning he was more impactful in only one game.

Ronaldo Vieira - Knock limits season debut Vieira had two shots (zero on goal), one cross (one accurate) and one chance created in Saturday's 3-0 win against Sporting Kansas City. He was injured and subbed out in the 66th m...

Impact It appears that an undisclosed injury limited Vieira to under 90 minutes for only the fifth time across his Earthquakes career. Their 2025 season saw him log eight appearances, all starts, to cap off their campaign. Vieira will look to get healthy before they host Atlanta United next Saturday.

Jamar Ricketts - Assist in start Ricketts assisted once to go with one shot (zero on goal), one cross (zero accurate) and two chances created in Saturday's 3-0 victory against Sporting Kansas City.

Impact Ricketts significantly improving from 2024 to 2025 does not cement his 2026's potential output, but his season-opening appearance is a strong start. Last year saw him log two assists across 19 appearances (12 starts). For the assist category, Ricketts is already halfway to his 2025's tally.

Beau Leroux - Assist in start Leroux assisted once to go with one shot (zero on goal), one cross (one accurate) and one chance created in Saturday's 3-0 victory over Sporting Kansas City.

Impact Though the 2025 Earthquakes' last few games saw Leroux dropped, it looks like he will be starting matchups moving forward. The midfielder finished last season with three assists, meaning he is already one-third of the way there in said category for 2026.

Preston Judd - Goal up front Saturday Judd scored one goal to go with three shots (two on goal) in Saturday's 3-0 win over Sporting Kansas City.

Impact Even though the 2026 Earthquakes will have an ex-European mainstay in Timo Werner to put up front, he is not ready yet, which explains why they put Judd up front to begin their regular season. Despite a limited window, it began with him getting right on the Quakes' scoresheet. Judd will look to improve from a six-goal 2025, during which he logged 29 appearances but barely double-digit starts.

Daniel Munie - Begins season with brace Munie scored two goals to go with two shots (two on goal) in Saturday's 3-0 victory against Sporting Kansas City. In addition, he was given a yellow card in the 36th minute.

Impact After finishing 2025 as a regular starter for the Earthquakes, Munie began his 2026 season as part of their starting XI once more. He scored the 2026 Earthquakes' first goal and headed in another, giving him two goals, which already ties his 2025 season's tally logged across 22 starts.

Daniel - Logs one-save clean sheet Daniel had one save and secured a clean sheet in Saturday's 3-0 win versus Sporting Kansas City.

Impact 2026 will mark Daniel's fourth year with San Jose. During the 2025 Earthquakes' season, he logged three clean sheets. Daniel is already one-third of the way there for 2026 and will look to make it back-to-back clean sheets Saturday against Atlanta United.

Timo Werner - Still waiting for his visa Werner was forced to miss the opening match vs Sporting Kansas City as he awaits his working visa, reports Daniel Poulter of Poulter Talk Sports.

Impact Werner could not play Saturday as he still waits to gain his working visa. He signed from RB Leipzig in late January, expecting to be a huge plus in the attack, given his resume of playing for top European teams like Chelsea, Tottenham and Leipzig.
