The 49ers got some good news this week. Defensive tackle D.J. Jones' ankle injury wasn't as serious as the team feared. His season will continue, but he was still held out of the first practice of the week.
Jones wasn't the only defensive lineman missing on Wednesday. Head coach Kyle Shanahan told reporters that Kevin Givens was excused for personal reasons.
Wide receiver Deebo Samuel is dealing with a foot contusion. Although, he could return to practice later this week. Shanahan says the injury has nothing to do with the broken foot he suffered over the offseason.
"He just took a knee on the foot, so not related, but too sore today to go," Shanahan said. "I bet if it was a Wednesday (during a normal practice week), he'd probably be able to go. But to us, it's a Tuesday (because of the short week)."
Cornerbacks K'Waun Williams and Emmanuel Moseley are still working their ways back. Moseley is dealing with a hamstring injury and did not practice. Williams, who suffered a high-ankle sprain on November 5, was limited. Shanahan said before practice that Williams would not participate, so him being limited is good news for the defensive back.
Below are Wednesday's practice participation reports for both the 49ers and Washington, which were provided by the 49ers Communications staff.
