The strong safety's full participation in Saturday's session implies he has moved past the issue and will be ready for next Thursday's preseason game against the Chargers. Sigle logged two tackles (one solo) against the Titans before finishing his night due to the oblique issue.

49ers' Marques Sigle: Healthy scratch Sunday
Sigle (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Giants, Briana Jeannel of the 49ers' official site reports.
The safety started the first seven games of the season and played on every defensive snap from Week 1 to Week 5, but he saw his playing time drop from 62 percent of the defensive snaps to 31 percent to zero over the last three weeks, following the return of Malik Mustapha (knee) from injured reserve.

49ers' Marques Sigle: Sees playing time drop in Week 7
Sigle recorded two tackles (one solo) while playing just 31 percent of San Francisco's defensive snaps in Sunday's 20-10 win over Atlanta.
Sigle played every one of San Francisco's defensive snaps from Week 1 to Week 5, but he dipped to a 62 percent share upon the return of Malik Mustapha from IR in Week 6 versus Tampa Bay. The rookie safety's defensive snap share then dropped to 31 percent Sunday, with Mustapha at 69 percent and Jason Pinnock at 35 percent. David Lombardi of SFStandard.com suggests that Mustapha will ultimately be a regular starter while Sigle, Pinnock and Ji'Ayir Brown -- who played every defensive snap Sunday -- contend for the No. 2 spot.

49ers' Marques Sigle: Initially injury diagnosis hopeful
San Francisco head coach Kyle Shanahan said Saturday that Sigle will still undergo testing but that initial indications are that he's avoided a serious knee injury, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.
Sigle was forced out of Saturday's 30-9 preseason loss to the Broncos early due to a knee issue, and Shanahan praised the rookie fifth-round pick's level of play prior to his departure. It remains to be seen, however, whether Sigle's injury will impact his status for the 49ers' next preseason contest on Saturday, Aug. 16 at Las Vegas.

49ers' Marques Sigle: San Fran adds speedy Round 5 safety
The 49ers selected Sigle in the fifth round of the 2025 NFL Draft, 160th overall.
Sigle (5-foot-11, 199 pounds) was a backup for three years at North Dakota State before transferring to start at Kansas State in his fourth and fifth seasons. Sigle plays with a lot of motor and boasts excellent speed (4.37-second 40), so at the very least he can run and hit. What's less clear is whether Sigle has the coverage skills and wrap-up fundamentals necessary to play a starter's snap count. Although the 49ers will try to develop Sigle into a capable starter, there's a chance he more so makes a name for himself as a standout special teams player who doubles as a backup safety.
