Sudfeld was elevated to the 49ers' active roster from the practice squad Friday.
EDGE Analysis
Sudfeld will be the No. 2 quarterback Sunday against the Texans, with Jimmy Garoppolo doubtful due to a thumb injury. Sudfeld has appeared in four NFL games in his career, all with Eagles and spread out between 2017 and 2020. The 28-year-old has completed 25 of 37 asses for 188 yards, with one touchdown and an interception in his career.

Sudfeld reverted to San Francisco's practice squad Monday, per the NFL's official transaction log.
EDGE Analysis
Sudfeld was elevated to the active roster ahead of the 49ers' Week 7 tilt against the Colts to serve as Jimmy Garoppolo's backup. Though he was active, Sudfield did not play with Garoppolo handling all of the duties at quarterback. With rookie Trey Lance nearing a return, Sudfeld may not be elevated to the active roster any time soon.

Sudfeld was elevated to the 49ers' active roster from the practice squad Saturday, Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
EDGE Analysis
Sudfeld was brought up to the active roster ahead of the 49ers' Week 5 matchup with the Cardinals to serve as Trey Lance's backup, as Jimmy Garoppolo (calf) was inactive. However, in Week 7, he will be serving as Garoppolo's backup with Lance (knee) sidelined.

Sudfeld reverted to the 49ers' practice squad following Sunday's loss to the Cardinals, Cam Inman of The San Jose Mercury News reports.
EDGE Analysis
The 28-year-old didn't appear in Sunday's Week 5 matchup while working behind Trey Lance. If Jimmy Garoppolo (calf) is cleared to return after the 49ers' bye week, Sudfeld will likely remain on the practice squad.

Sudfeld was elevated from the 49ers' practice squad Saturday, Matt Barrows of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Sudfeld will serve as the backup quarterback behind Trey Lance against the Cardinals on Sunday since Jimmy Garoppolo (calf) has been ruled out.

Sudfeld was released by the 49ers on Tuesday, Chris Biderman of The Sacramento Bee reports.
EDGE Analysis
Sudfeld played in the season finale for the Eagles last season and completed five of 12 passes for 32 yards, no touchdowns and an interception. With Jimmy Garoppolo and Trey Lance (finger) on the final roster, there was no room for a developmental quarterback. Sudfeld could land on the practice squad if he clears waivers.

The 49ers signed Sudfeld to a one-year contract Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
Sudfeld ends up with a crowded landing spot, as the 49ers already have Josh Rosen and Josh Johnson around to compete for backup roles. Jimmy Garoppolo (ankle) also remains in house, and at No. 3 overall San Francisco seems destined to select a hopeful franchise quarterback in the 2021 NFL Draft, so there should be strong competition for even the third spot on the depth chart.

Sudfeld completed five of his 12 pas attempts for 32 yards and an interception in his lone appearance during the 2020 season.
EDGE Analysis
Sudfeld didn't see the field until the regular-season finale versus Washington, when Carson Wentz was a healthy inactive for the contest. Head coach Doug Pederson then elected to bench an ineffective Jalen Hurts for the second half of that contest, allowing Sudfeld to get some snaps in the final two quarters. The 27-year-old is due to become an unrestricted free agent this offseason, and the fact that Pederson has since been dismissed could hurt Sudfeld's chances of sticking around in Philadelphia after he had been with the organization as a backup for the past four seasons.

Sudfeld (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game versus the Rams.
EDGE Analysis
The nature of the Eagles' decision is not yet known, but either rookie Jalen Hurts has vaulted Sudfeld for the No. 2 QB role, or the former will take the field Sunday for particular sub packages. In any case, Sudfeld won't get a chance to see the field Week 2.
