EDGE Analysis

Ford (quadriceps) practiced in a limited fashion Thursday, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Ford is accustomed to starting the practice week with limitations, so he's not in jeopardy of missing Sunday's clash against the Seahawks. The 49ers' cautionary approach with Ford has paid off, as the 28-year-old defensive end recorded 5.5 sacks through the first eight games despite playing 27 or fewer snaps in every outing since Week 1.

Ford notched two solo tackles and one sack during Thursday's 28-25 win over the Cardinals.

EDGE Analysis

Ford has now recorded 5.5 sacks across eight games. The veteran defensive end hasn't played more than 50 percent of snaps on defense since Week 1, but he's making the most of his rotational role. Ford is a risky play in IDP formats, though he possesses clear upside.

Ford (quadriceps) was estimated to be a limited participant on Monday's injury report, Matt Barrows of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

The 49ers didn't actually practice given gameday was Sunday, but the fact he was estimated to practice in some fashion indicates he's on track to play Thursday.

EDGE Analysis

Ford followed procedure yet again, as he was limited in practice once again but won't carry an injury tag into the game.

Look for Ford to disrupt Kyle Allen, who has been dropped 10 times in four apperances.

EDGE Analysis

Ford managed to play through his lingering quad injury Week 7 against Washington, so it doesn't appear as though he's in danger of missing time. If he's able to suit up Sunday against the Panthers, he'll work to make an impact against one of the league's premier rushing attacks.

Ford had two tackles (one solo) and one sack in Sunday's win over the Redskins.

EDGE Analysis

Ford had only three tackles through the first four games of the year, but he's been more production in the last two games with six tackles, 2.5 sacks and a forced fumble. A matchup against the Panthers -- who rank in the bottom half of the league with 16 sacks allowed -- awaits in Week 8.

The 28-year-old has seven tackles (four solo), 3.5 sacks and two forced fumbles through his first five games with San Francisco.
