K.Harris, McDonald inactive

Right tackle Kwame Harris is one of the eight 49ers who will not suit up for tonight's game, but team officials say they have not had any trade talks concerning Harris. It's reasonable to assume the Redskins, who lost right tackle Jon Jansen for the season on Sunday, might be interested in a replacement. I have been on the lookout for Scot McCloughan for the past three hours but he has eluded me thus far.
Harris, who had started 33 straight games for the 49ers, lost his starting job to rookie Joe Staley last month. The other inactive players are safety Dashon Goldson, cornerback Donald Strickland, guard Tony Wragge, defensive end Atiyyah Ellison, receiver Jason Hill and defensive end Ray McDonald. Shaun Hill is the third quarterback.
Wragge is a bit of a surprise considering he plays three positions and was needed in last year's opener against Arizona. Any even bigger surprise is McDonald, who seemed to be the only 49ers d-lineman who pressured the quarterback during the preseason.
