49ers-Jets Injury Report: Joe Staley doesn’t practice
The San Francisco 49ers are preparing to face the New York Jets on Sunday at Levi's Stadium in Santa Clara, California.
OT Joe Staley was the lone 49ers player that did not practice today. He is dealing with a hamstring injury. If Staley cannot go on Sunday, there may have to be a shift along the offensive line to cover for his absence.
RB Shaun Draughn and
OLB Aaron Lynch continue to be limited in practice. Draughn is recovering from a rib injury suffered during Sunday's loss to the Chicago Bears. He has been wearing a blue non-contact jersey this week. Lynch, who has missed nine games this season and five straight, has been attempting to return from a high ankle sprain.
"We think he's made progress," Kelly told reporters today while discussing Lynch. "I think one of the things that will be interesting is can he go two days in a row...We'd love to be able to get him up and get him ready to go on Sunday."
DE Quinton Dial, who is dealing with an elbow injury, returned to practice today after not practicing on Wednesday.
Below are the Thursday practice participation reports for both the 49ers and the Jets.

49ers restructure Fred Warner's contract, create $9.5 million in salary cap space
The San Francisco 49ers made another move to add salary-cap space. On the same day the team restructured cornerback Charvarius Ward's deal, it restructured linebacker Fred Warner's. ESPN's Field Yates was the first to report the news.
The move creates $9.5 million in salary cap space for the Bay Area team. Paired with Ward's restructuring, the 49ers created nearly $20 million of additional cap space.

Details emerge on LB Fred Warner's restructured deal with 49ers
On Tuesday, the San Francisco 49ers created $9.5 million in salary cap space by restructuring the contract of linebacker Fred Warner. The deal remains a five-year one worth $95.225 million, and the player remains signed through the 2026 season.
However, much of Warner's 2023 base salary has been converted to a signing bonus, paying him that amount immediately but allowing the 49ers to spread the salary-cap impact of the amount throughout the length of the contract. In Warner's case, the impact of the signing bonus will go beyond 2026, as the 49ers added a void year in 2027.
Warner's 2023 salary cap number reduces from about $18.5 million to $9.049
