    49ers LB Fred Warner said he has been playing through a fractured ankle.
    Warner sustained the injury against the Patriots in Week 4, and has played through it ever since because “it’s the NFL and you’re not going to be healthy.” Fair enough, Fred. We still have to point out that should the 49ers season go south and they fumble out of playoff contention, there is a chance that they’d shut Warner down for the rest of the year.
  • SF Linebacker #54
    49ers LB Fred Warner (ankle) was removed from the injury report and will play in Week 6 against the Seahawks.
    Warner played through the ankle injury in Week 5 and escaped without any further complications. The three-time All-Pro totaled 12 tackles and a TFL versus Arizona while playing every snap, per usual. He is good to go for the 49ers’ Thursday Night Football bout with Seattle.
  • SF Linebacker #54
    49ers LB Fred Warner (ankle) was a limited participant in Tuesday’s walk-through practice.
    Warner has been dealing with an ankle injury he suffered in Week 4. With just one limited practice last week, he still played in Week 5. Now beginning the week listed as limited in Monday’s practice estimation and Tuesday’s walk-through, Warner looks like he will play Week 6. Among the rest of the 49ers defense, DT Jordan Elliott (knee) and LB Demetrius Flannigan-Fowles (calf) did not practice while S Ji’Ayir Brown (ankle) and CB Charvarius Ward (knee) were limited. Talanoa Hufanga (wrist) is going to miss at least a few weeks, so Warner’s role in the middle of the defense will be greater Thursday against the Seahawks.
  • SF Tight End #85
    George Kittle (ribs) is active for the 49ers’ Week 5 contest against the Cardinals.
    Linebacker Fred Warner (ankle) is also active. Offensively, the 49ers enter Week 5 at near full strength. Kittle went for 4-45-1 in his return last week and has now scored in two straight games. He’ll look to push his touchdown streak to three games against the 49ers’ NFC West foe. The 49ers did declare OL Ben Bartch, QB Joshua Dobbs, WR Jacob Cowing, WR Chris Conley, LB Demetrius Flannigan-Fowles, and CB Darrell Luter Jr. inactive against the Cardinals.
  • SF Linebacker #54
    ESPN’s Adam Schefter reports 49ers LB Fred Warner (ankle) is expected to play in Week 5 against the Cardinals.
    Warner got in one limited practice this week before being listed as questionable. Despite the light practice workload, he appears to be good to go. Warner’s presence in the lineup makes this a slightly worse matchup for Cardinals TE Trey McBride, who will likely square off with Warner throughout their Week 5 bout.
  • SF Linebacker #54
    49ers LB Fred Warner (ankle) is questionable for Week 5 against the Cardinals.
    Warner did not practice on Wednesday or Thursday but was back on the field for what was certainly a limited session on Friday. Warner is one of the best coverage linebackers in the league and will likely be matched up with Trey McBride often if healthy. McBride’s fantasy outlook would improve in a meaningful way if Warner isn’t able to suit up this week.
  • SF Tight End #85
    George Kittle (ribs) was not spotted at Thursday’s practice.
    49ers beat writer Matt Barrows notes that Kittle and Fred Warner (ankle) were seen in full gear on the side field, so it’s possible they join the team later for a limited session. Kittle was a DNP for Wednesday’s practice. If he’s not able to log even a limited session before the weekend, it’s fair to say his Week 5 status would be in jeopardy.
  • SF Tight End #85
    George Kittle (ribs) returned for Week 4 against the Patriots.
    The broadcast surmises Kittle may have suffered the injury during his jump-ball touchdown, and likewise attributes Fred Warner’s ankle injury to his pick-six return. Warner has yet to return though.
  • SF Tight End #85
    The 49ers announced George Kittle (ribs) is questionable to return.
    The team also announced Fred Warner (ankle) is likewise questionable. It is unclear as to when the injuries occurred but both players are evidently banged up. Kittle entered the game returning from a hamstring injury.
  • SF Linebacker #54
    49ers restructured LB Fred Warner’s contract.
    We don’t know the details of the restructure, but according to The Athletic’s Matt Barrows, the team converted “a sizable portion” of Warner’s base salary into roster bonuses, which will create some additional cap space. Warner and the Niners restructured his deal last year as well.
