If you ignore the injured reserve list that includes 19 players, the San Francisco 49ers appear to be relatively healthy. That's good news as the team prepares to play the Houston Texans at NRG Stadium on Sunday.
"Since the Dallas game, the injury bug has kind of -- I don't want to jinx it -- has kind of stopped," 49ers defensive coordinator Robert Saleh said on Thursday. "We've been able to have that continuity throughout and so the improvement that we've been seeing has been pretty cool defensively."
The only player who
did not practice on Wednesday due to an injury was right tackle Trent Brown (shoulder). He was limited on Thursday. Brown played all 75 offensive snaps during Sunday's victory against the Chicago Bears after being listed as questionable for the game.

49ers-Texans player-for-player trade fell apart on Tuesday
Defensive tackle Arik Armstead is now a free agent after the San Francisco 49ers released him on Wednesday. However, Matt Barrows of The Athletic reports that he was almost headed to the Houston Texans.

49ers' Ji'Ayir Brown is a Cybertruck fan but was advised against buying dream vehicle
San Francisco 49ers safety Ji'Ayir Brown recently visited a New Jersey electric vehicle dealership, intending to purchase a Tesla Cybertruck. However, his trusted financial adviser dissuaded him from proceeding with the purchase.
Brown, entering his second NFL season after making it to the Super Bowl as a rookie last season, was keen on buying a Cybertruck priced around $200,000, a significant markup over the vehicle's selling price. He even test-drove the truck and praised its ride and features.
