The 49ers on Thursday had left tackle Trent Williams back in practice after he missed Wednesday’s session with an ankle injury.
San Francisco is already dealing with a slew injuries on defense and may not have running back Raheem Mostert nor center Ben Garland for the foreseeable future. Losing Williams, who’s been playing well this season, would’ve been a particularly significant blow to the offensive line that finally got its bearings against the Rams.
There’s no guarantee Williams plays Sunday against the Patriots, but a limited Thursday session is progress toward his availability on game day. Either way, we may not know until Sunday when Williams has a chance to test his ankle.
Here’s the full practice report for Thursday:
Did not participate
LB Kwon Alexander (ankle)
RB Raheem Mostert (ankle)
S Jaquiski Tartt (groin)
Limited participation
OT Trent Williams (ankle)
RB Jeff Wilson (calf)
Full participation
CB Dontae Johnson (groin)
