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.
