News

  • Likely done for the year

    Coach Kyle Shanahan said Tuesday that Ford (neck) is "unlikely to play this season," Matt Barrows of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Shanahan said the same of fellow defensive end Ronald Blair (knee) and center Weston Richburg (knee). Ford's neck injury has kept him sidelined since Week 1, and given that his contract has a potential out after the 2020 season, it's possible that he doesn't suit up with the 49ers again.

  • Expected to sit until close to bye

    Ford (neck) isn't expected to return until sometime around San Francisco's Week 11 bye, per coach Kyle Shanahan, Jennifer Lee Chan of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

    Analysis: The same is true for cornerback Richard Sherman (calf), who is also on IR. Ford can safely be ruled out of San Francisco's next three games, which occur in a 12-day span starting Sunday against New England, but a slightly faster than expected recovery could see him suit up against the Saints in Week 10.

  • Shifts to IR

    The 49ers placed Ford (neck) on injured reserve Wednesday, Eric Branch of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

    Analysis: Ford will miss at least three weeks as he recovers from a neck injury that has kept him out of the last two games. The 49ers are quite banged up on the defensive line, so expect Dion Jordan, Ezekiel Ansah and Dekoda Watson to continue taking on increased duties behind starters Arik Armstead and Kerry Hyder.

  • Candidate for injured reserve

    Coach Kyle Shanahan said he'll decide whether to put Ford (back) on injured reserve within the next couple days, Eric Branch of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

    Analysis: The 29-year-old has missed the past two games with the back issues, and it appears he isn't particularly close to being game ready. Ford would be sidelined for at least three weeks if placed on injured reserve, and he's unlikely to play Week 4 even if the team opts not to make the move.

  • Ruled out against Giants

    Ford (back) has been ruled out of Sunday's game versus the Giants, Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

    Analysis: The 49ers will have a new look at defensive end in Week 3 since Ford will miss a second straight game and Nick Bosa (torn ACL) has been ruled out for the year. Kerry Hyder is expected to start Sunday while Dion Jordan and Ezekiel Ansah rotate in.

  • DNP to start week

    Ford (back) did not practice Wednesday, Jennifer Lee Chan of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

    Analysis: Ford's lack of participation in Wednesday's practice reinforces the notion that he's trending in the wrong direction for Week 3. If Ford is indeed unable to suit up against the Giants on Sunday, new teammates Ezekiel Ansah and Dekoda Watson will be in line to handle significant roles right off the bat.

  • Unlikely to play Week 3

    Ford (back) is expected to miss Sunday's game versus the Giants, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: The injuries keep stacking up for the 49ers' defensive front, as both DE Nick Bosa and DT Solomon Thomas have been ruled out for the season with torn ACLs. Kerry Hyder is slated to start opposite Arik Armstead on the defensive line, and both newly acquired Ezekiel Ansah and Dekoda Watson will likely have roles.

  • Dealing with back issue

    Coach Kyle Shanahan clarified Ford's injury as a back issue Monday, Eric Branch of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

    Analysis: The 29-year-old sat out Sunday and was said to be dealing with neck spasms, but it's apparently more of a back injury. Ford's availability for Week 3 likely won't receive much clarity until the 49ers return to practice Wednesday, but if available he figures to be a significant factor in the pass rush with Nick Bosa (knee) and Solomon Thomas (knee) going down with potentially serious injuries.

  • Unavailable against Jets

    Ford (neck) has been ruled out for Sunday's game versus the Jets, Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

    Analysis: Ford was unable to practice Thursday or Friday, and although he entered the weekend questionable, he's ultimately been deemed unfit to play. The 49ers' DE depth will take a hit, as Kerry Hyder -- who logged 33 snaps in Week 1 -- will be the primary backup to Nick Bosa and Arik Armstead on Sunday.

  • Questionable for Week 2

    Ford (neck) is officially listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Jets, Cam Inman of The Mercury News reports.

    Analysis: Ford will be a game-time call for the battle of the league's two most injury-riddled teams. The decorated pass rusher failed to get to Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray in Week 1, but Ford should find more success against an underwhelming Jets offensive line if he suits up.

  • Status for Week 2 uncertain

    Ford had an MRI on Thursday after missing practice due to a stiff neck, Eric Branch of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

    Analysis: General manager John Lynch said Friday on KNBR that Ford's status for Sunday's game against the Jets will be unclear until the 49ers receive word on his test results. Defensive coordinator Robert Saleh previously downplayed the severity of Ford's issue, per Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com, but at this point the possibility of the veteran pass rusher being forced to miss time can't be ruled out.

  • Nursing neck injury

    Ford (neck) did not practice Thursday, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Ford was a new addition to Thursday's injury report, but Wagoner notes that defensive coordinator Robert Saleh downplayed the severity of his neck issue. The extent of Ford's participation in Friday's practice will serve as an indication of his chances of suiting up against the Jets on Sunday.

  • Returns from injury

    Ford (calf) was active in Monday's team practice, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Head coach Kyle Shanahan stated that he would be surprised if Ford wasn't able to play Week 1, and the early availability in the practice week confirms that sentiment. The veteran speed rusher was running on a flat tire down the stretch last year, but offseason surgery should help him come out of the gates strong. Ford possesses double-digit sack potential -- even as a situational pass rusher -- if he can stay on the field all season.

  • Trending in right direction

    Coach Kyle Shanahan said Wednesday that he would be surprised if Ford (calf) wasn't available for Week 1, Eric Branch of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

    Analysis: Ford tweaked his calf during practice last week but wasn't expected to be out very long. At this point, it's still safe to assume that Ford will be ready to rock when the season begins Sept. 13 against the Cardinals, barring any injury setbacks.

  • Shouldn't be out long

    Head coach Kyle Shanahan relayed Ford dealt with calf irritation and is day-to-day, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Ford tweaked his calf during one-on-one pass-rushing drills Sunday, but it's good news that he should be back soon and ready for Week 1 at the very least. The seventh-year pro was hampered by quadriceps/hamstring injuries last season and still managed 6.5 sacks through 11 games.

  • Exits practice early Sunday

    Ford tweaked his leg in Sunday's practice, David Lombardi of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Lombardi speculated it was an ankle or calf injury, and if it's a serious injury, there should be more details soon. Ford battled a hamstring/quadriceps injury for nearly the entire 2019 season, but he still averaged 21 snaps per game over 11 contests. The 49ers' defensive front is banged up, however, as Nick Bosa (undisclosed), Arik Armstead (back) and D.J. Jones (concussion) are all on the mend.

  • Healthy after knee procedure

    Ford is fully healthy after undergoing "a pretty extensive cleanup" procedure on his knee shortly after Super Bowl LIV, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: The 29-year-old missed time down the stretch with hamstring and quadriceps injuries throughout the season -- though he played in all three playoff games -- and he also dealt with knee tendinitis that led to the surgery. Ford played in 11 games last year but was limited to 232 defensive snaps, but he still recorded 6.5 sacks. He could remain in a situational role in 2020 with Nick Bosa and Arik Armstead returning as the starting defensive ends, but Ford still figures to be more involved with a…read more

  • Injury limits debut with new club

    Ford finished with 14 tackles (10 solo), 6.5 sacks and two forced fumbles over 11 games during the 2019 regular season.

    Analysis: Ford teamed up with rookie Nick Bosa and DeForest Buckner to create the league's best pass-rushing defensive line. The 28-year-old had his season stunted due to a hamstring injury that never fully healed even after his return during the playoffs. An offseason of rest should give Ford enough time to heal up for the 2020 campaign, but his IDP value is limited due to minuscule tackle totals as a situational -- albeit elite -- pass rusher.

  • Limited again Friday

    Ford (quadriceps) was a limited participant in Friday's practice, Cam Inman of The San Jose Mercury News reports.

    Analysis: Ford put together a trio of limited practices this week. He'll have nine more days to get as close to 100 percent health as possible ahead of the Super Bowl on Feb. 2, including three more chances to increase his practice activity.

  • Limited in Thursday's practice

    Ford (quadriceps) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Ford has now logged back-to-back limited practices, though Wednesday's session was merely an estimate. The 28-year-old will have a week and a half to ramp up his activity ahead of the Super Bowl on Feb. 2. He's on track to play his usual role as a pass-rush specialist.

  • Limited on estimate

    Ford (quadriceps/hamstring) was listed as limited on Wednesday's estimated injury report, Eric Branch of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

    Analysis: Ford managed to avoid an injury designation for Sunday's NFC Championship Game against Green Bay, so there's reason to suspect that his limitations are mostly precautionary. Assuming he avoids a setback in the next two weeks, the 28-year-old can be considered on track to play his usual role as a pass-rush specialist in the Super Bowl.

  • Clear of injury designation

    Ford (quadriceps/hamstring) won't carry an injury designation into Sunday's NFC Championship Game against Green Bay.

    Analysis: Ford began the week not practicing due to the quadriceps and hamstring injuries, but he was able to progress to full participation Friday and avoid the questionable tag. The 28-year-old had a sack last week against the Vikings in his first game action since Week 14 and should serve in his usual role as a pass-rush specialist this weekend.

  • Upgrades to limited practice

    Ford (hamstring) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice, Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

    Analysis: Ford didn't practice Wednesday, so Thursday's limited session represents a tangible step in the right direction. He'll have one more opportunity to practice fully Friday and enter the NFC Championship Game against Green Bay without an injury designation.

  • Not practicing Wednesday

    Ford (hamstring) isn't participating in Wednesday's practice, Matt Barrows of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Coach Kyle Shanahan said that the situation surrounding Ford's hamstring injury hasn't changed at all. Given that the veteran defensive end was able to suit up for the divisional-round win over Minnesota, he appears on track to play in Sunday's NFC Championship Game against the Packers. Ford will have two more opportunities to practice in some capacity before the 49ers decide whether he'll carry a designation into the contest.

  • Good to go

    Ford (hamstring) is available for Saturday's matchup with the Vikings, Eric Branch of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

    Analysis: Ford was limited at practice throughout the week, but he will give it a go. As a result, the 49ers' stellar defensive line will be at full strength.

  • Questionable for divisional round

    Ford (hamstring) is officially listed as questionable for Saturday's NFC divisional-round contest against the Vikings, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Ford kicked off the week with back-to-back limited practices, so his questionable tag doesn't come as much of a surprise. The 28-year-old appears to have a fair shot at suiting up against Minnesota on Saturday, in which case he'll likely play a rotational role at defensive end.

  • Limited again Wednesday

    Ford (hamstring) was a limited practice participant Wednesday, Jennifer Lee Chan of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

    Analysis: Ford is practicing in a limited fashion for a second straight day, keeping him on track for Saturday's game against the Vikings. Coach Kyle Shanahan previously expressed optimism about the 28-year-old's availability for this weekend, and there's been no indication he's suffered any setbacks. Ford appears to be trending in the right direction, but he could fully avoid an injury designation if he's able to practice without limitations Thursday.

  • Limited during Tuesday's session

    Ford (hamstring) was a limited participant in Tuesday's practice, Keiana Martin of the 49ers' official site reports.

    Analysis: Ford missed the last three regular-season games, and he's had an extra week to recover since the 49ers secured a bye. Coach Kyle Shanahan has expressed optimism that Ford will be able to play in Saturday's divisional-round matchup versus the Vikings, according to Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports reports. If Ford can elevate to full participation, it'll clear all doubts about his status, but he seems to be on the right track regardless.

  • Coach hopeful for return

    Coach Kyle Shanahan relayed that he's optimistic Ford (quadriceps/hamstring) will be ready for the divisional playoff round Jan. 11, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Ford has dealt with a quadriceps injury for almost the entire year, and he's missed five of the last six games. The team hopes the upcoming bye week will be enough to get him back into the fold. Ford hasn't played more than 27 defensive snaps in a game since Week 1, so his playing time will likely be limited if he's able to return.

    Ford (hamstring) is ruled out for Sunday's contest against the Seahawks, Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

    Analysis: Ford is not practicing Thursday, putting him on track to miss a third straight contest due to his lingering hamstring injury. The 28-year-old is targeting a return to the field for the 49ers' first postseason contest.

    Ford (hamstring) did not practice Wednesday, Eric Branch of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

    Analysis: Ford has missed two consecutive games with a hamstring injury. He'll probably need to return to the field Thursday or Friday in order to have any chance of playing in Sunday's game against the Seahawks.

  • Won't play Saturday

    Ford (quadriceps) has been ruled out of Saturday's game against the Rams, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Ford was unable to practice this week and will therefore miss what is essentially a fifth consecutive game with the injury. The 28-year-old will likely need to get some practice in next week in order to suit up against Seattle in Week 17.

  • Sidelined Thursday

    Ford (hamstring) is not participating in the portion of Thursday's practice open to the media, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Ford appears on track to miss his third straight practice, but he did manage to participate in drills off to the side Thursday, according to Cam Inman of The San Jose Mercury News. It's looking likely that the veteran defensive end will forced to miss a second consecutive contest, in which case Solomon Thomas would likely see another uptick in snaps.

  • Unfit to practice

    Ford (hamstring) didn't participate in Wednesday's practice, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Ford missed consecutive practices, and it's increasingly unlikely he's ready to go by Saturday's game against the Rams. When Ford's in the lineup, he's a disruptive threat with 6.5 sacks over 11 games despite averaging just 21 defensive snaps per contest. During Ford's absence, Solomon Thomas was afforded an increase in usage and figures to retain the role if Ford can't go again.

  • Does not practice Tuesday

    Ford (hamstring) was unable to practice Tuesday, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: The 49ers merely held a walk-through Tuesday, but it's not a good sign that Ford is still sidelined. He'll most likely need to get on the practice field in at least a limited capacity this week in order to suit up against the Rams.

    Ford has been ruled out for Sunday's game against Atlanta, Eric Branch of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

    Analysis: Ford was unable to practice this week and will miss his third game out of the last four. Solomon Thomas played 33 snaps after Ford left Week 14's contest against the Saints and will likely continue to be the primary replacement for the 28-year-old.

  • Non-participant Wednesday

    Ford did not participate in Wednesday's practice due to aggravated injuries to his hamstring and quadriceps, Cam Inman of the San Jose Mercury News reports.

    Analysis: Ford quickly re-aggravated his hamstring injury during Sunday's win over the Saints, as he only managed to log four defensive snaps in the contest. Should he be sidelined again in Week 15 versus the Falcons, Solomon Thomas could see an uptick in usage behind starting defensive ends Nick Bosa and Arik Armstead.

  • Done for Week 14

    Ford (hamstring) won't return to Sunday's game against the Saints, Cam Inman of The San Jose Mercury News reports.

    Analysis: Ford likely aggravated the hamstring injury that forced him to miss the last two games, and he's been out since the first quarter. Now that he's officially done for the day, Solomon Thomas and Jeremiah Valoaga likely will continue to see an uptick in snaps. Expect the team to comment on the specifics of Ford's injury in the coming days.

  • Aggravates injury

    Ford (hamstring) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Saints, Jennifer Lee Chan of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

    Analysis: It's unclear if it's the same hamstring injury that forced Ford to miss the last two games, but he left the game late in the first quarter. As long as Ford is sidelined, Solomon Thomas and Jeremiah Valoaga stand to see an uptick in snaps.

  • Good to go versus Saints

    Ford (quadriceps) does not carry an injury designation for Sunday's contest against the Saints, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Ford is set to retake the field against New Orleans on Sunday after a two-game absence. The veteran defensive end stands to play his usual rotational role in San Francisco's pass rush.

  • Practicing with limitations

    Ford (quadriceps) was limited during Wednesday's practice, Jennifer Lee Chan of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

    Analysis: Ford has sat out the past two games due to this injury, but it's a positive sign that he's starting the week on the practice field. The sixth-year defensive end hasn't surpassed 27 defensive snaps since Week 1, though, so if he's able to suit up Sunday against the Saints, he's slated for a similar role.

  • Sits out practice Wednesday

    Ford (hamstring) didn't practice Wednesday, Matt Barrows of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Ford missed this past Sunday's win over the Packers, but coach Kyle Shanahan said the defensive end has a chance to play this week against the Ravens, according to Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com. He's trending in the wrong direction to start the week, but Ford has two more practices to prove his health. Solomon Thomas registered a season-high 42 defensive snaps against Green Bay and figures to handle a similar role should Ford be ruled out again.

  • Could return Week 13

    Coach Kyle Shanahan said Ford (hamstring) will "have a chance" to play Sunday at Baltimore, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: The 28-year-old suffered the right hamstring strain Week 11 versus the Cardinals and didn't play during Sunday's win over the Packers, but he may only end up missing the one game. Ford's status should receive additional clarity when the team returns to practice later this week.

    Ford (hamstring) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Packers, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Coach Kyle Shanahan said at the start of the week Ford was expected to miss a couple weeks with the hamstring strain, so it's not a major surprise he's unavailable. Damontre Moore should see increased reps as a rotational defensive end for the 49ers in his place.

  • Not practicing Wednesday

    Ford (hamstring) was a non-participant at Wednesday's practice, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Coach Kyle Shanahan said earlier in the week Ford could miss a couple weeks due to the hamstring strain, so it's no real surprise to see him sitting out. The 28-year-old is unlikely to be available for this weekend's game versus the Packers.

  • Injury cause for concern

    Coach Kyle Shanahan said Monday that Ford could miss a couple of weeks with a hamstring strain, Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

    Analysis: Ford suffered the hamstring injury in the first half of Sunday's win over the Cardinals and didn't return. This news is obviously not a great sign for his Week 12 status, and at the very least, he should be considered doubtful. If Ford is forced to miss time as his coach suggests, his absence could afford Solomon Thomas and Damontre Moore more snaps on the defensive line.

  • Won't return to Sunday's contest

    Ford (hamstring) is ruled out for the remainder of Sunday's game against the Cardinals.

While Ford normally is limited in practice with a lingering quadriceps issue, the 49ers' training staff will now monitor Ford's hamstring during the upcoming week leading up to next Sunday's matchup against the Packers.

  • Healthy ahead of MNF

    Ford (quadriceps) logged a full practice Saturday, and he won't have an injury designation heading into Monday's game against Seattle.

    Analysis: Ford was a limited practice participant to open the week, but he ramped up his workload and earned the all-clear for Monday. The pass rusher's speed will be put to the test as he looks to build on his season total of 5.5 sacks against elusive Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson.

  • Limited during Thursday's practice

    Ford (quadriceps) practiced in a limited fashion Thursday, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Ford is accustomed to starting the practice week with limitations, so he's not in jeopardy of missing Sunday's clash against the Seahawks. The 49ers' cautionary approach with Ford has paid off, as the 28-year-old defensive end has recorded 5.5 sacks through the first eight games despite playing 27 or fewer snaps in every outing since Week 1.

  • Records sack in win

    Ford notched two solo tackles and one sack during Thursday's 28-25 win over the Cardinals.

    Analysis: Ford has now recorded 5.5 sacks across eight games. The veteran defensive end hasn't played more than 50 percent of snaps on defense since Week 1, but he's making the most of his rotational role. Ford is a risky play in IDP formats, though he possesses clear upside.
