Crabtree (foot) is probable for Sunday's game against Kansas City.
Crabtree's Week 4 game against Philadelphia was a disappointment, but he might see even more than the eight targets he saw a week ago since Vernon Davis (back) appears unlikely to play. Crabtree seems like a safe WR2 play in most formats.

Crabtree (foot) practiced in full Wednesday, Matt Barrows of the Sacramento Bee reports.
After leaving Sunday's win against the Eagles for a short time due to a foot injury, Crabtree fended it off by hauling in five balls (on eight targets) for 43 yards. The 49ers' corps of receivers could be without Vernon Davis (back) and Vance McDonald (knee) in Week 5 against the Chiefs, thereby affording Crabtree plenty of looks from Colin Kaepernick. Crabtree has received a combined 28 targets over the last three games.

Crabtree (foot) took part in practice Wednesday, Paul Gutierrez of ESPN.com reports.
Crabtree, who entered Sunday's game against the Eagles with a quadriceps concern, spent a portion of the outing on the sideline due to an injured left foot. With eight or more targets in each of the last three contests, he's one of the primary focuses of Colin Kaepernick's progressions, especially with Vernon Davis enduring back spasms at the moment. Consequently, continue to watch Crabtree's status closely as the weekend draws near.

Crabtree (foot) had five receptions on eight targets for 43 yards in Sunday's win over Philadelphia.
Crabtree left the game in the first quarter with a foot injury, but returned, and was able to finish the game. He dropped a pass at one point, and was wide open on what would have been about a 20-yard touchdown in the second half, but Colin Kaepernick threw a terrible pass that the wide receiver could not get to. Assuming his foot is not an issue next week, he should bounce back against Kansas City at home.

Crabtree, who left Sunday's game against the Eagles in the first quarter with a left foot injury, was able to return to the contest.
Great news for the 49ers, given Crabtree's history of foot woes, though it's possible that the issue might end up limiting the wideout at practice next week.

Crabtree left Sunday's game against the Eagles in the first quarter with a left foot injury, csnbayarea.com reports.
Prior to leaving the game, Crabtree caught a two-yard pass. We'll continue to monitor Crabtree's status, but it's worth noting that he's had issues with the same foot in the past.

Crabtree (quadriceps) is active for Sunday's game against the Eagles, the Sacramento Bee reports.
Crabtree is out there Sunday on the heels of a 10-catch, 80-yard effort against the Cards in Week 3. He leads the 49ers with 24 targets through three contests and will take aim at a Philadelphia squad that has allowed 61 points over its last two games.

Crabtree (quadriceps) is probable for Sunday's game against Philadelphia.
Crabtree's health is little or no concern heading into Sunday, as he practiced fully Friday. He has what looks like a nice matchup against a Philadelphia pass defense that made Kirk Cousins look great Sunday. He could see particularly favorable targets if Vernon Davis (ankle, questionable) sits again.

Crabtree (quadriceps) practiced fully Thursday, the Sacramento Bee reports.
Crabtree's appearance on the injury report is a sudden development, after sidestepping the listing Wednesday. The occurrence marks his second time on the report this season, but first time in his career with an ailing quad. However, he still managed to fit in every rep, which bodes well for his availability Sunday versus the Eagles. Friday's injury report could clear up whether or not he enters the weekend as a safe option at wide receiver.

Crabtree had 10 receptions (11 targets) for 80 yards with a touchdown in Sunday's loss at Arizona.
Crabtree had trouble shaking free on any long pass plays, but he was dealing with Patrick Peterson most of the game. After putting up a dud in Week 1, Crabtree has been very productive the last two games. He probably won't see 11 targets when Vernon Davis (ankle) is healthy enough to play, but the veteran wide receiver is clearly a big part of San Francisco's passing attack.
