The 49ers were without cornerback Charvarius Ward for Wednesday’s practice. Ward isn’t necessarily facing a new injury. According to head coach Kyle Shanahan, Ward has a heel injury, which has been bothering him since the start of the season.
It wouldn’t be surprising to see Ward miss most Wednesday practices moving forward. That’s been the case for Trent Williams, who had his usual veteran’s day off. This time, Christian McCaffrey joined Williams.
Here are the players who did not suit up on Wednesday:
RB Elijah Mitchell (knee)
LB Dre Greenlaw (ankle)
CB Charvarius Ward (heel)
OL Jon Feliciano (concussion)
Wide receivers Deebo Samuel (knee/ribs) and Jauan Jennings (shin) will both be limited.
