The story of safety Jimmie Ward is a tragic one for the San Francisco 49ers: Filled with talent, but as the old saying goes, “the No. 1 ability is availability” and, at this point, Ward has proven he cannot be relied upon.
This time, with a fractured collarbone that will keep him out until training camp at the least.
Now, that usually wouldn’t be a concern. But like I said earlier, Ward has a history, one that has 49ers fans wondering what the solution can be if Ward continues to stay injured.
