Smith-Schuster (hamstring) remains listed as questionable but is expected to play Sunday against the 49ers, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

Smith-Schuster popped up on the injury report Thursday with the hamstring issue and logged consecutive limited sessions to close out the practice week. His injury never seemed to be overly serious, and the Chiefs are exercising caution more than anything in listing him as questionable. Assuming Smith-Schuster is cleared once the Chiefs release their inactive list 90 minutes prior to Sunday's 4:25 p.m. ET kickoff, he'll look to build off the 7-130-0 receiving line he produced in the Chiefs' Week 5 win over the Saints prior to a Week 6 bye. The veteran wideout could have a big opportunity ahead of him in the wake of Rashee Rice's season-ending knee injury.
