49ers vs. Seahawks injury report: Latest updates, news for Week 11
The San Francisco 49ers need a win in Week 11 over the Seattle Seahawks. Their injury situation may make it a significant uphill climb to a victory.
With the Arizona Cardinals on a Bye, the 49ers could finish Week 11 in a tie for first place in the NFC. They'll be in second because of head-to-head tiebreakers, but they'll also be just a half game out of the No. 7 seed in the NFC. San Francisco needs to start stacking some wins against NFC and NFC West opponents to give themselves a little breathing room in their hunt for a postseason berth.
Seattle, on the other hand, is trying to climb out of the NFC West basement after their Bye. A loss puts them further behind the curve to compete in the NFC West. A win puts them in position to fight for the division crown.
There's a ton at stake in Sunday's game, and the 49ers may be missing some key players. Here's what their Week 11 injury report looks like:

CB Charvarius Ward injury update
Ward remains out to deal with a personal matter. Head coach Kyle Shanahan intimated Ward could be nearing a return, but the team won't put a date on when he comes back due to the nature of his absence.
DT Kevin Givens injury update
Givens was seen working on a side field Friday according to ESPN's Nick Wagoner. That's a good sign for the 49ers' DT who has become an integral part of their defensive line rotation.
P Mitch Wishnowsky injury update
A back injury cropped up for Wishnowsky during training camp and flared up in Week 10. He may be out significant time to get his back right. The 49ers signed P Pat O'Donnell to their practice squad as a potential replacement if Wishnowsky is out long-term.
