WHITE SULPHUR SPRINGS, W.Va. -- The 49ers could be without six of their defensive starters on Sunday against the Atlanta Falcons.
Defensive end Nick Bosa was listed as questionable due to a groin injury for the 49ers' Week 6 game. He did not practice on Wednesday and Thursday but took part in limited work Friday before the club traveled to Atlanta.
Coach Kyle Shanahan said Bosa “looked good” during the team’s light practice on Friday.

“It’s not bad enough to say he’s out, but you have to be careful with whoever has that and, obviously, especially Nick,” Shanahan said.
Bosa is tied for the NFL lead with six sacks on the season.
Defensive linemen Arik Armstead (foot, ankle) and Javon Kinlaw (knee), and defensive backs Emmanuel Moseley (knee) and Jimmie Ward (hand) were also ruled out.
Linebacker Azeez Al-Shaair (knee) is on injured reserve, scheduled for a second-half return.

Left tackle Trent Williams (ankle) also was ruled out for Sunday’s game but could be available for the 49ers’ Week 7 game against the Kansas City Chiefs.
Left guard Aaron Banks (knee) is listed as questionable. The 49ers likely would line up Daniel Brunskill in place of Banks with center Jake Brendel and right guard Spencer Burford, if Banks is unavailable.
