Kyle Shanahan talks Brian Hoyer, Tim Hightower, cross-training defensive players

What happened with DB Jimmie Ward, to sustain that injury?

“He did it in our conditioning test, which was unfortunate for him and for us obviously. He tweaked it halfway through it. I don’t, we don’t think it was a full pull or anything, but we want to be smart and safe with it. You never know with those things how long they’ll take. Don’t think it’s anything too serious, but want to definitely be safe with it.”

Is S Jaquiski Tartt the guy that steps in to either of those spots if S Eric Reid or Jimmie were to go down?
