  • 49ers' Charvarius Ward: Logs 10 tackles

    Ward recorded 10 tackles (eight solo) and a pass deflection during the 49ers' 30-23 win against the Rams on Sunday.

    Ward's 10 tackles were good for third most on the team, with only Fred Warner (11) and Dre Greenlaw (12) finishing with more. The 27-year-old has now logged 13 tackles (10 solo) and two pass deflections across two games and will look to add to those totals against the Giants on Thursday night.

  • 49ers' Charvarius Ward: Ready to play

    Ward (heel) is active Sunday against the Steelers.

    Ward popped up on the injury report Thursday, but he's good to go for Week 1, which is good news for the 49ers' secondary. He should start at corner opposite Deommodore Lenoir.

  • 49ers' Charvarius Ward: Listed as questionable

    Ward (heel) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Steelers, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.

    Ward was added to the injury report Thursday and didn't practice. Mid-week additions are rarely ever good news, but Ward was officially deemed questionable to face Diontae Johnson and George Pickens in the Week 1 opener.

  • 49ers' Charvarius Ward: Nursing heel injury

    Ward (heel) did not practice Thursday ahead of Sunday's game at the Steelers, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.

    Any time Ward misses would represent a major blow to what should otherwise be expected to be one of the top defensive units in the NFL in 2023. If he is forced to sit out in Week 1, it will likely mean increased playing time for 2022 fifth-rounder Samuel Womack and increased fantasy projections for Kenny Pickett, George Pickens and Diontae Johnson.

  • 49ers' Charvarius Ward: Back at practice

    Ward (groin) was a full participant in practice Tuesday, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.

    The cornerback was limited with what appeared to be a minor injury at the start of training camp. Ward inked a three-year deal with the 49ers before the 2022 season and went on to record 87 tackles, 11 passes defended and an interception in 17 starts. The sixth-year player will start at corner again in 2023.

  • 49ers' Charvarius Ward: Dealing with injury

    Ward has been limited during training camp as he tends to a groin injury, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.

    It's not clear when Ward suffered the injury or the severity of it, but as long as he remains off injured reserve, it's likely minor. The 27-year-old set career highs in tackles and passes defended last season, his first in San Francisco, after four seasons with Kansas City. He should hold down one of the starting cornerback spots when healthy.

  • 49ers' Charvarius Ward: Restructures deal with 49ers

    Ward agreed Tuesday to restructure his contract with San Francisco, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.

    Ward converted $12.5 million of his salary into a signing bonus while adding three void years to his current deal. The move creates roughly $10 million in cap space for the 49ers just ahead of the official new league year. The 26-year-old's inaugural campaign with San Francisco last season was successful, as he recorded a career-high 87 tackles.

  • 49ers' Charvarius Ward: Plays well with new club

    Ward finished the 2022 regular season with 87 tackles (59 solo) and an interception across 17 games.

    Ward had a successful first season with his new club after leaving Kansas City to come to San Francisco. The 26-year-old finished with a career high in tackles, but he did suffer lapses in coverage at times. Ward will enter the second year of his three-year contract with the 49ers serving as the team's top corner once again.
