Before Wednesday's practice,
Jordan Willis was not among the injuries head coach Kyle Shanahan mentioned. The defensive end is dealing with a knee injury, though. It wasn't from the Week 1 loss to the Chicago Bears.
Willis was inactive for the game.
The 49ers didn't learn about the injury until Monday. Willis will undergo a "clean-up procedure," and the team placed him on its injured reserve list.
The move opened a roster spot. San Francisco filled it by promoting defensive end Kemoko Turay from the practice squad to the active roster.
The 49ers also announced the signings of the following three players to the practice squad.
- RB Marlon Mack
- WR Willie Snead IV
- CB Kary Vincent Jr.

49ers promote D-lineman to active roster ahead of Saints game
On Friday, the San Francisco 49ers listed defensive lineman Arik Armstead (foot, ankle) as "doubtful" for Sunday's game against the New Orleans Saints. Wide receiver Deebo Samuel is "questionable" as he deals with a hamstring injury.
In preparation for potentially missing Armstead, the 49ers announced that they have promoted defensive lineman T.Y. McGill from the practice squad to the active roster. They could not temporarily elevate him from the practice squad because the team had already done so three times, the maximum for one season.
San Francisco waived defensive lineman Kemoko Turay to open the roster spot necessary for promoting McGill. Turay has been inactive for five games this season, including the past three.
