Latest news:
Both Clive Walford (knee) and Latavius Murray (toe) missed practice Wednesday and their status is unknown at this time. Some reports suggest Murray is pretty banged up and could miss this week’s game against the Chargers. If he is unable to go, I expect DeAndre Washington and Jalen Richard to share the load pretty evenly.
The team signed middle linebacker Perry Riley Jr this week to replace Ben Heeney who was placed on injured reserve. With Malcolm Smith also ailing with a quad injury, Riley could potentially see playing time immediately.
Right tackle Austin Howard returned to practice this week after missing three of the first four weeks with an ankle injury. He was limited Wednesday. If he is able to go, it would be a big boost after rookie seventh round pick Vadal Alexander’s penalty plagued start last week.
To replace Lee Smith, who was sent to IR with an ankle injury, at tight end, the team called up undrafted rookie Ryan O’Malley from the practice squad.
