New 49ers Week 11 practice report features more bad news than good
The San Francisco 49ers are teetering on the brink of potential disaster on the injury front as they prepare for their Week 11 showdown against the Seattle Seahawks.
Thursday's practice participation report was even more crowded than Wednesday's, and it featured more bad news than good.
The good news is that tight end George Kittle returned to action after missing Wednesday's session. He was limited Thursday, as anticipated by head coach Kyle Shanahan who told reporters he wasn't too worried about Kittle's status for Sunday.
In some less-than-good news, left tackle Trent Williams was absent again with an ankle issue. Wide receiver Jauan Jennings also showed up as a limited participant with an ankle injury.
Williams was classified as a non-participant for rest Wednesday, but he also had an ankle injury listed. That ankle kept him out of another practice Thursday, putting his status for Sunday in doubt. If he can't go, Jaylon Moore would be next in line to step in at left tackle. This will be worth monitoring closely.
Jennings wasn't on the Wednesday report which makes his appearance Thursday even more concerning. It's unclear the severity of the issue and when he sustained the injury. Shanahan will speak with reporters Friday and give a better idea of what the 49ers' leading wide receiver is dealing with.
Defensive end Nick Bosa remained out of practice with a hip injury. He intimated to reporters Wednesday that he'd likely miss the entire week in hopes of getting ready to play Sunday. He's also a question mark for Sunday in a key matchup with the Seahawks.
