49ers injury update: FS Jimmie Ward ruled out vs. Bears

Jimmie Ward has been ruled out with a quad injury. Two backup safeties in for the #49ers.

The 49ers defense suffered another injury in their secondary. Free safety Jimmie Ward has been ruled out of the rest of San Francisco’s game in Chicago with a quad injury.

Ward was hurt early in the fourth quarter. There’s no word on the specifics of the ailment but the fact he was ruled out so quickly isn’t a great sign.

Veteran Tavon Wilson is in the game for him alongside rookie Talanoa Hufanga who started in place of the injured starting strong safety Jaquiski Tartt.
