Luter (pelvis) was placed on the 49ers' injured reserve Saturday, Matt Barrows of The Athletic reports. Luter appears to have injured his pelvis during practice this week, as he popped up on Friday's injury report as a DNP. It's serious enough to warrant a multi-game absence, and since he'll be forced to miss at least the next four regular-season games, the earliest Luter can return would be Week 15 against the Rams on Thursday, Dec. 12. Luter has played in just three games and has mostly played on special teams.

Luter (pelvis) was placed on the 49ers' injured reserve Saturday, Matt Barrows of The Athletic reports. Luter appears to have injured his pelvis during practice this week, as he popped up on Friday's injury report as a DNP. It's serious enough to warrant a multi-game absence, and since he'll be forced to miss at least the next four regular-season games, the earliest Luter can return would be Week 15 against the Rams on Thursday, Dec. 12. Luter has played in just three games and has mostly played on special teams.
Luter (pelvis) did not appear on the 49ers' injury report Wednesday, Cam Inman of The San Jose Mercury News reports. Luter was forced to miss the team's 28-18 loss to Kansas City in Week 7 due to a pelvis injury, but he now appears to be a full go ahead of Week 8 against Dallas. The cornerback has appeared in one game this season, recording two tackles and a forced fumble in Week 6 versus Seattle.
Luter (pelvis) is inactive for Sunday's game against Kansas City. Luter has appeared in one game this season, logging three snaps on defense and another 13 on special teams.
The rookie out of South Alabama had been on San Francisco's PUP list since late August, but he was activated to the team's active roster yesterday and is now in line to play in Sunday's contest. Luter is expected to serve as a rotational cornerback on the 49ers' defense now that he's ready to return to the field.
The move opens a 21-day window during which the 49ers can officially activate Luter before they'd be forced to shut him down for the remainder of the season. He appears to be close to making his regular-season NFL debut heading into Week 10.
