Ward recorded five tackles (two solo) during Sunday's 35-10 loss at Buffalo. Ward had sat out the 49ers' previous three games due to a serious personal matter, but he resumed his regular every-down role Sunday. He figures as San Francisco's top cornerback for the rest of the season as long as he's available.
Ward (personal) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice, Cam Inman of The San Jose Mercury News reports. Ward sat out the past four games while mourning the loss of his one-year-old daughter. He returned to a full practice Wednesday, and it appears the seventh-year corner should be available for Sunday's game against the Bills.
Ward (personal) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Packers, Cam Inman of The San Jose Mercury News reports. Ward spent the last three weeks away from the team mourning the loss of his one-year-old daughter and is now set to miss Sunday's matchup in Green Bay as he eases back into action, per David Lombardi of SFStandard.com. While Ward remains sidelined in Week 12, San Francisco's top outside cornerbacks will likely be Isaac Yiadom and Renardo Green.
Ward (personal) returned to the 49ers on Monday, David Lombardi of The San Francisco Standard reports. The starting cornerback missed the last two games following the recent passing of his one-year-old daughter. Ward's return should put him on track to play in Week 12 against the Packers. The seventh-year pro has 35 tackles (26 solo) and five passes defensed in seven games this season.
Ward (personal) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Seahawks, Cam Inman of The San Jose Mercury News reports. Ward will miss a second straight game due to the recent passing of his one-year-old daughter. It's unclear how long he'll be away from the team, but Ward's next chance at playing will be Week 12 against the Packers on Sunday, Nov. 24. In Ward's absence, Renardo Green will step up as the second starting corner alongside Isaac Yiadom.
Ward (personal) was listed as a DNP on Wednesday. Ward remains away from the team due to a serious personal matter, and it's unclear whether he'll return for Week 11 against the Seahawks. If Ward is sidelined for Sunday's game, Renardo Green would likely start at corner for a second straight game alongside Isaac Yiadom.
Ward (personal) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Buccaneers, David Lombardi of The San Francisco Standard reports. Ward has stepped away from the team as he continues to deal with a serious personal situation, so missing Sunday's contest comes as no surprise. Rock Ya-Sin and Darrell Luter will likely see increased work in the 49ers' secondary until Ward returns.
Coach Kyle Shanahan said Wednesday that a return date for Ward (personal) has not been discussed, Eric Branch of the San Francisco Chronicle reports. Ward has been away from the team since its game versus the Cowboys in Week 8 due to a serious personal matter, and the 49ers are showing him grace as he takes time to work through it. He'll decide for himself if and when to return to football activities this season.
Ward (knee) was a full participant in practice Wednesday. Ward was also seen practicing in Monday's bonus practice, so it appears the cornerback is back to near-full health after missing Week 6 due to a knee injury. He's had a good amount of time to recover because that game against the Seahawks was on a Thursday, and at this point it seems Ward will be ready to return Sunday against Kansas City. In the five contests in which he's played, Ward has tallied 22 tackles (17 solo) and four pass defenses.
