The San Francisco 49ers are preparing for their Week 11 contest against the Arizona Cardinals on Monday night at Estadio Azteca in Mexico City. This week, the team is practicing at the United States Air Force Academy in Colorado Springs, about an hour south of Denver, to get acclimated to the altitude.
Head coach Kyle Shanahan has already ruled out defensive tackle Javon Kinlaw for Monday's game. Kinlaw remains on injured reserve due to a setback in his surgically reconstructed knee. He did not make the trip with the team.
Also missing from Thursday's practice, the first of the week, was defensive lineman Arik Armstead. He is dealing with foot and ankle injuries that have forced him to miss the last five games. Defensive end Samson Ebukam (quadricep) was also noticeably absent from the practice field. Although, Nick Wagoner of ESPN saw him getting some work on the side.
The good news is that Danny Gray was on hand, albeit limited. Earlier this week, Shanahan said the rookie wide receiver was day-to-day after rolling his ankle during pre-game warmups on Sunday night.
Cornerback Charvarius Ward did not practice due to a personal matter. Shanahan doesn't believe the defender will miss Monday's game, though.
