Cardinals vs. 49ers: Week 11 breakdown, preview for San Francisco
By Peter Panacy
49ers Week 11 Injury Report
The Niners suffered some notable injuries during their Week 10 loss to the Seahawks, notably losing reserve defensive end Ronald Blair to a season-ending ACL injury, as well as Emmanuel Sanders suffering a rib injury.
Sanders is still considered day to day, yet running back Matt Breida has already been ruled out with an ankle sprain. Left tackle Joe Staley suffered a broken finger in Week 10 and will miss a couple of weeks, too. George Kittle (knee/ankle) remains doubtful.
Here’s the rest of San Francisco’s Week 11 injury report:
- LB Azeez Al-Shaair (concussion)
- RB Matt Breida (ankle)
- TE Garrett Celek (back)
- EDGE Dee Ford (quad)
- K Robbie Gould (quad)
- NT D.J. Jones (groin)
- TE George Kittle (knee/ankle)
- RB Raheem Mostert (knee)
- WR Dante Pettis (back)
- WR Emmanuel Sanders (ribs)
- T Joe Staley (finger)
- TE Levine Toilolo (groin)
- CB Ahkello Witherspoon (foot)
Gould’s injury meant the 49ers had to rely on rookie kicker Chase McLaughlin in Week 10. And while his fourth-quarter field goal tied things up late against the Seahawks, his overtime miss ultimately cost the Niners a chance to stay undefeated.
If there’s good news, however, Witherspoon looks to be on track to return after suffering a foot sprain earlier this season.
