While the 49ers wrestle with some injury issues at right tackle, they’re seeing their health trend up at some other positions. Head coach Kyle Shanahan on Sunday in a conference call with media said the team expected to get a slew of their injured players back in action in the final week of the preseason.
Cornerback Emmanuel Moseley (hamstring), defensive lineman Arik Armstead (knee), tight end Charlie Woerner (core muscle surgery), offensive lineman Jaylon Moore (lower leg), linebacker Curtis Robinson (groin) and defensive back Dontae Johnson (ribs) will all be in practice to start the week.
There’s also a possibility CB Ambry Thomas is back after missing Saturday’s preseason game with a knee injury.
Shanahan said CB Charvarius Ward (hamstring) won’t return for the final preseason matchup, but should be back the following week.
RT Mike McGlinchey (knee), free safety Jimmie Ward (hamstring) and running back Elijah Mitchell (hamstring) will all continue sitting out.
