San Francisco 49ers safety Jaquiski Tartt suffered a turf toe injury during the team's Week 9 loss to the Green Bay Packers and landed on injured reserve this week. This season, an unlimited number of players can return from injured reserve. Each just has to sit out three games.
Head coach Kyle Shanahan says Tartt won't be among those returning this season.
"Jimmie Ward and Tartt, they've been a little bit in and out," Shanahan said on KNBR's
Tolbert, Krueger & Brooks show. "Being able to get them back in there was helping. Then we had that bad injury to Tartt, to where he got his turf toe. Nothing he could do about it, and his season's over."
Tartt started in all seven games in which he appeared this season and registered 28 tackles, four passes defended, and one interception. He may have played his last game with San Francisco. Tartt is scheduled to become an unrestricted free agent after the season.
The 49ers also lost cornerback K'Waun Williams to a high-ankle sprain. Normally, the team would place him on injured reserve and re-evaluate the situation down the road. Williams, however, has already been on injured reserve once this season. Putting him on the list again would end his season.
"Regardless of what happens, a high-ankle sprain for him is going to be about four to six weeks," Shanahan explained. "And we can't put him on IR-to-return, so we're just holding out hope that we can get him back here at the end of the year.
"But if that costs a roster spot, if there's something that comes up to where we can't do that, or it's taking longer, then if we put him on IR, he's done for the year. You can't return twice."

Breaking down the 49ers drafts under John Lynch and Kyle Shanahan
We are less than one week away from the NFL Draft, and the San Francisco 49ers have their first day-one draft pick since 2021. That was the year they selected QB Trey Lance number three overall. The trade-up to get Lance cost the 49ers their first-round picks in 2022 and 2023. And now that they are back in the first round, at pick 31, fans are anxious to see what the team does with the pick. And with former assistant GM, Adam Peters, now in Washington, it will be interesting to see how well the 49ers draft without Peters in the room.
We looked back at the seven drafts GM John Lynch and Head Coach Kyle Shanahan have led to see what information we could pull from those drafts. There were plenty of hits, plenty of misses, and a few surprises along the way. The draft picks are
