For a second consecutive game, the San Francisco 49ers could be without Carlos Hyde.
The team's starting running back has been ruled questionable for Sunday’s Week 9 home game against the New Orleans Saints. Linebacker Aaron Lynch (ankle) and rookie cornerback Rashard Robinson (knee) were ruled out by the 49ers. Second-year linebacker Eli Harold and third-year pro Jimmie Ward figure to have increased roles on Sunday.
Hyde returned to practice this week in a non-contact jersey to protect his injured right shoulder. Hyde was limited all week in practice.
