Ford (quadriceps) was limited during Wednesday's practice, Jennifer Lee Chan of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
EDGE Analysis
Ford has sat out the past two games due to this injury, but it's a positive sign that he's starting the week on the practice field. The sixth-year defensive end hasn't surpassed 27 defensive snaps since Week 1, though, so if he's able to suit up Sunday against the Saints, he's slated for a similar role.

Ford (hamstring) is ruled out for Sunday's game against the Ravens, Cam Inman of The San Jose Mercury News reports.
EDGE Analysis
Ford will miss a second consecutive game due to his lingering hamstring injury. In his stead, expect Solomon Thomas to handle an increased snap count versus Baltimore on Sunday.

Ford (hamstring) didn't practice Wednesday, Matt Barrows of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Ford missed this past Sunday's win over the Packers, but coach Kyle Shanahan said the defensive end has a chance to play this week against the Ravens, according to Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com. He's trending in the wrong direction to start the week, but Ford has two more practices to prove his health. Solomon Thomas registered a season-high 42 defensive snaps against Green Bay and figures to handle a similar role should Ford be ruled out again.

Coach Kyle Shanahan said Ford (hamstring) will "have a chance" to play Sunday at Baltimore, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
The 28-year-old suffered the right hamstring strain Week 11 versus the Cardinals and didn't play during Sunday's win over the Packers, but he may only end up missing the one game. Ford's status should receive additional clarity when the team returns to practice later this week.

Ford (hamstring) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Packers, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Coach Kyle Shanahan said at the start of the week Ford was expected to miss a couple weeks with the hamstring strain, so it's not a major surprise he's unavailable. Damontre Moore should see increased reps as a rotational defensive end for the 49ers in his place.

Ford (hamstring) was a non-participant at Wednesday's practice, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Coach Kyle Shanahan said earlier in the week Ford could miss a couple weeks due to the hamstring strain, so it's no real surprise to see him sitting out. The 28-year-old is unlikely to be available for this weekend's game versus the Packers.

Coach Kyle Shanahan said Monday that Ford could miss a couple of weeks with a hamstring strain, Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
EDGE Analysis
Ford suffered the hamstring injury in the first half of Sunday's win over the Cardinals and didn't return. This news is obviously not a great sign for his Week 12 status, and at the very least, he should be considered doubtful. If Ford is forced to miss time as his coach suggests, his absence could place more emphasis on Solomon Thomas and Damontre Moore to see more snaps on the defensive line.

Ford (hamstring) is ruled out for the remainder of Sunday's game against the Cardinals.
EDGE Analysis
Ford left the game in the first half, and now he's officially done for the day. While Ford normally is limited in practice with a lingering quadriceps issue, the 49ers' training staff will now monitor Ford's hamstring during the upcoming week leading up to next Sunday's matchup against the Packers.

Ford was forced out of Sunday's game against the Cardinals with a hamstring injury, Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
EDGE Analysis
Ford has dealt with a quadriceps injury all year but hasn't missed a game, and he may miss the remainder of this contest with a hamstring issue. The powerful pass rusher notched a sack before leaving this contest, and he now has 6.5 on the season.

Ford (quadricep) will not have an injury designation for Week 11, Josh Weinfuss of ESPN.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Ford was limited in the first two practices of the week prior to turning in a full one Friday. He should be in the rotation at defensive end Sunday.
