Fives tackles against Bears
Ward finished Sunday's 38-13 win over Chicago with five tackles (four solo).
Analysis: Ward tied Talanoa Hufanga and Malik Mustapha (chest) for the second-most tackles on the 49ers on Sunday behind De'Vondre Campbell (seven). Ward has registered 10 tackles (six solo) in his two games back since a three-game absence due to a personal matter.

Plays every snap in return
Ward recorded five tackles (two solo) during Sunday's 35-10 loss at Buffalo.
Analysis: Ward had sat out the 49ers' previous three games due to a serious personal matter, but he resumed his regular every-down role Sunday. He should be San Francisco's top cornerback for the rest of the season as long as he's available.

Ward (personal) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice, Cam Inman of The San Jose Mercury News reports.
Analysis: Ward sat out the past four games while mourning the loss of his one-year-old daughter. He returned to a full practice Wednesday, and it appears the seventh-year corner should be available for Sunday's game against the Bills.

Analysis: Ward spent the last three weeks away from the team mourning the loss of his one-year-old daughter and is now set to miss Sunday's matchup in Green Bay as he eases back into action, per David Lombardi of SFStandard.com.

Ward (personal) returned to the 49ers on Monday, David Lombardi of The San Francisco Standard reports.
Analysis: The starting cornerback missed the last two games following the recent passing of his one-year-old daughter. Ward's return should put him on track to play in Week 12 against the Packers. The seventh-year pro has 35 tackles (26 solo) and five passes defensed in seven games this season.

Analysis: Ward will miss a second straight game due to the recent passing of his one-year-old daughter. It's unclear how long he'll be away from the team, but Ward's next chance at playing will be Week 12 against the Packers on Sunday, Nov. 24.

Ward (personal) was listed as a DNP on Wednesday.
Analysis: Ward remains away from the team due to a serious personal matter, and it's unclear whether he'll return for Week 11 against the Seahawks. If Ward is sidelined for Sunday's game, Renardo Green would likely start at corner for a second straight game alongside Isaac Yiadom.

Out for Sunday
Ward (personal) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Buccaneers, David Lombardi of The San Francisco Standard reports.
Analysis: Ward has stepped away from the team following the recent death of his one-year-old daughter, so his absence from Sunday's contest comes as no surprise. Rock Ya-Sin and Darrell Luter will likely see increased work in the 49ers secondary until Ward returns.

No timeline to return
Coach Kyle Shanahan said Wednesday that a return date for Ward (personal) has not been discussed, Eric Branch of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.
Analysis: Ward has been away from the team since its game versus the Cowboys in Week 8 due to a serious personal matter, and the 49ers are showing him grace as he takes time to work through it. He'll decide for himself if and when to return to football activities this season.

Practices in full Wednesday
Ward (knee) was a full participant in practice Wednesday.
Analysis: Ward was also seen practicing in Monday's bonus practice, so it appears the cornerback is back to near-full health after missing Week 6 due to a knee injury. He's had a good amount of time to recover because that game against the Seahawks was on a Thursday, and at this point it seems Ward will be ready to return Sunday against Kansas City. In the five contests in which he's played, Ward has tallied 22 tackles (17 solo) and four pass defenses.

Returns to practice
Ward (knee) was spotted practicing Monday, David Lombardi of The San Francisco Standard reports.
Analysis: Ward was considered day-to-day after missing the 49ers' Week 6 win over the Seahawks with a knee injury. Monday's return to practice is a sign that Ward is trending in the right direction, and he'll likely serve as San Francisco's top cornerback in Week 7 against the Chiefs if he can play through the injury.

Considered day-to-day
Ward is considered day-to-day with a knee injury, Jennifer Lee Chan of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
Analysis: Ward didn't play in San Francisco's Week 6 win over the Seahawks after sustaining a knee injury the week prior, but it appears a return to the field could be on the horizon. The seventh-year pro's participation in practice next week will provide the best indication of his potential availability in Week 7, when the 49ers host the Chiefs.

No-go for TNF
Ward (knee) is inactive for Thursday's matchup with the Seahawks on Thursday Night Football, Lindsey Pallares of the 49ers' official website reports.
Analysis: Ward has been dealing with a bruised knee at practice this week after the team's 24-23 loss to the Cardinals on Sunday. The cornerback will now be forced to sit out Week 6, and as a result, Rock Ya-Sin and Darrell Luter will likely see an increase in workload in San Francisco's secondary. Ward will look to take advantage of an extended break in order to be ready to go for the 49ers' Super Bowl rematch with Kansas City in Week 7 on Oct. 20.

Iffy for Thursday
Ward (knee) is questionable for Thursday's game against the Seahawks.
Analysis: Ward saw his typical workload in Sunday's loss to the Cardinals, so it's not clear when he suffered the injury, although he did deal with knee issues earlier in the season. After logging a DNP on Monday, the veteran corner was able to log back-to-back limited practice sessions, likely putting him on the right side of questionable for TNF. However, clarity likely won't come until San Francisco releases its inactive list 90 minutes before kickoff.

Upgrades practice participation
Ward (knee) was a limited participant in Tuesday's practice session, Cam Inman of The San Jose Mercury News reports.
Analysis: Ward bruised his knee during the 49ers' 24-23 loss to the Cardinals on Sunday. He was listed as a DNP in Monday's estimated practice report, but he managed to see the field during Tuesday's session. Barring any setbacks, Ward should be good to go for Thursday's NFC West clash against Seattle.

Considered DNP Monday
Ward (knee) was listed as a non-participant on Monday's estimated practice report, Matt Barrows of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Ward recorded four total tackles (three solo) in Sunday's 24-23 loss to the Cardinals, potentially leaving the contest a little worse for wear. The cornerback dealt with a knee issue earlier this season, and he'll look to return to practice ahead of Thursday's matchup with the Seahawks.

Leads team in tackles
Ward logged nine tackles (six solo) and a pass deflection during San Francisco's 27-24 loss to the Rams on Sunday.
Analysis: Ward was dealing with hamstring and knee injuries throughout last week but ended up having a big game regardless, as he led the 49ers in tackles. Throughout the first three games of the season, the 28-year-old has now amassed 13 tackles (nine solo) and three pass deflections.

Good to go for Week 3
Ward (hamstring/knee) is active for Sunday's game against the Rams, David Lombardi of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Ward appeared on the 49ers' injury report Thursday with hamstring and knee injuries. He was tagged as questionable after being limited in Friday's practice, but the 28-year-old corner will suit up for Sunday's contest. Ward has four tackles (three solo) and two passes defended through the first two games of the regular season.

Deemed questionable for Week 3
Ward (hamstring/knee) is questionable to suit up against the Rams on Sunday, Matt Barrows of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Ward popped up on the injury report after not practicing Thursday, and he's listed as dealing with both hamstring and knee issues. The cornerback was able to log a limited practice Friday, so he still has a chance of suiting up Sunday. If Ward ultimately is unable to play, Rock Ya-Sin or Renardo Green could be asked to start in his stead.

DNP due to hamstring injury
Ward (hamstring) did not participate in Thursday's practice session, Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
Analysis: Ward wasn't listed on Wednesday's injury report, but the fact that the hamstring injury prevented him from practicing Thursday puts him in jeopardy of not suiting up against the Rams in Week 3. He'll have to practice in at least a limited capacity Friday in order to have a shot at playing Sunday. If Ward is sidelined, then Deommodore Lenoir would be the top candidate to start at corner opposite Isaac Yiadom.

Ready to go for training camp
Ward (groin) does not carry an injury designation ahead of the start of 49ers' training camp Tuesday, David Lombardi of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Ward underwent core-muscle surgery in February, which forced him to miss OTAs and minicamp. Ward appears to have recovered enough to return for the start of training camp, though he'll likely be eased back into practice, per Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com. Ward finished the 2023 regular season with a career-high five interceptions, along with 72 tackles (56 solo), 23 passes defended, one forced fumble and one touchdown across 17 regular-season games.

Will be ready for camp
Ward (groin) underwent core-muscle surgery in February, but he should be ready for training camp according to GM John Lynch, Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
Analysis: Ward had previously announced the surgery via his Instagram in February, but details of what the procedure was for and recovery time were absent. His ability to be ready to take the field for camp should have him suiting up Week 1 in 2024, assuming the 27-year-old doesn't suffer any setbacks in his recovery.

Undergoes surgey
Ward underwent successful surgery for an unknown injury after the Super Bowl, according to David Lombardi of The Athletic.
Analysis: Ward announced the news via his Instagram, according to Lombardi, but he did not disclose what kind of procedure he underwent or why. It's also unclear if the 27-year-old will be available at the beginning of any of San Francisco's offseason programs. However, it is likely safe to assume he played at least part of the season while dealing with the injury, making it likely the injury wasn't significant enough for Ward to need significant time to recover.

Doubles career INT total in 2023
Ward finished the 2023 season with 72 tackles (56 solo), 23 passes defended, five interceptions and the first defensive touchdown of his career across 17 regular-season starts with the 49ers.
Analysis: Ward's five interceptions matched his cumulative total from his first five seasons in the league. The former Kansas City corner has adapted well to being the No. 1 option for a team that lacked reliable defensive backs prior to his arrival. Ward was forced to watch his ex-teammates win Super Bowl LVIII, which should have the starter motivated as he enters the final year of a contract signed with San Francisco in 2022.

Snags INT in win
Ward had four tackles (three solo) and an interception in Sunday's 27-10 win over the Commanders.
Analysis: Ward picked off Sam Howell on the second play of the fourth quarter on a pass intended for Terry McLaurin stopping the Commanders' red-zone drive in its tracks. Ward has now accumulated three picks in his last three games and is up to a career-high five interceptions on the season.

Will suit up Week 15
Ward (groin) is officially active for Sunday's clash against Arizona.
Analysis: Ward left last week's win over Seattle very early due to a groin injury and wasn't able to practice until Friday, when he was a limited participant. However, the cornerback will be able to take the field Sunday, avoiding missing his first game since 2021. Ward will likely take on his usual near-every-down role against the Cardinals.

Questionable for Week 15
Ward (groin) is listed as questionable to play against Arizona on Sunday, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Ward played just four defensive snaps last Sunday against Seattle before leaving with a groin injury. He missed the first two days of practice this week but logged a limited session Friday, giving himself a chance to suit up against the Cardinals. If he needs to sit out, however, Isaiah Oliver could again see an uptick of work in San Francisco's secondary.

Stays sidelined
Ward (groin) will not practice Wednesday, Cam Inman of The San Jose Mercury News reports.
Analysis: Ward went down early against the Seahawks and was not able to return to the game. However, it was reported Monday that head coach Kyle Shanahan believed the 27-year-old had a chance to suit up Week 15 against the Cardinals. So, although a DNP to kick off the practice week isn't the best start, his status for Thursday and Friday's sessions will likely provide better clarity on whether Ward will be able to play.

He has 57 tackles (44 solo), two interceptions and a forced fumble in 13 games this season as the starting cornerback alongside Deommodore Lenoir.

Ward (heel) does not have an injury designation for Sunday's home game against Dallas, Matt Barrows of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Ward began the week with a DNP before logging a limited session Thursday and full practice participation Friday.

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.

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

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

Ward agreed Tuesday to restructure his contract with San Francisco, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Ward converted $12.5 million of his salary into a signing bonus while adding three void years to his current deal.

Analysis: Ward was formally cleared to return to Thursday's contest after being evaluated for a head injury, but he remained on the sideline with his helmet off and has since been diagnosed with a concussion.

Leaves with injury
Ward has exited Monday's game against the Cardinals with a groin injury.
Analysis: Ward suffered the injury in the first quarter and is questionable to return. If he is unable to get back in the game, it'll certainly be a blow to the 49er secondary. Ambry Thomas and Samuel Womack will be candidates for an uptick in snaps while Ward is out.

Leads team in stops Sunday
Ward recorded 10 tackles (eight solo) during Sunday's 44-23 loss to the Chiefs.
Analysis: Ward not only lead his team with 10 stops Sunday against Kansas City, but he also tied his previous career-high that he set in Week 15 versus the Chargers a year ago. The 26-year-old cornerback played all but one defensive snap in Week 7 against the Chiefs, and he'll look to build off this strong performance when the team is hosted by the Rams on Sunday.

Ward (groin) is active Sunday against the Chiefs.

Questionable for Sunday
Ward (groin) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Chiefs, Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
Analysis: Ward injured his groin last Sunday against Atlanta and began this week by missing practice Wednesday and Thursday before logging a limited session Friday. That gives him a chance to play Sunday, which would be a big boost to a San Francisco secondary that will be faced with the daunting task of slowing down Patrick Mahomes and the rest of Kansas City's potent passing attack. Ward played his first four NFL campaigns with the Chiefs before joining the 49ers prior to this season.

Doesn't practice Wednesday
Ward (groin) was a non-participant during the 49ers' practice Wednesday, David Lombardi of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Ward sustained a groin injury during Sunday's loss to the Falcons that sidelined him for the remainder of this contest. Now, unless he can increase his activity during practice Thursday or Friday, it appears this issue may keep him sidelined Week 7. Ward played almost every defensive snap for San Francisco over the first five games of the season, and, with fellow starter Emmanuel Moseley (knee) out for the season, the 49ers will need as many healthy cornerbacks as possible for Sunday's game…read more

Ward (groin) was not listed on San Francisco's injury report Wednesday, Eric Branch of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.
Analysis: Ward returned to practice this past Sunday after sitting out with a groin injury over the previous couple of weeks, though he now appears to officially be passed this issue. The 26-year-old played a prominent role in the Chiefs secondary over the past four seasons, including 67 tackles, 10 passes defended and two interceptions over 13 games in 2021.

Analysis: Ward spent the first four seasons of his career in Kansas City, where he proved to be a valuable member of the team's secondary.

More around ball in 2021
Ward tallied 67 tackles (48 solo) and two interceptions over 13 games during the 2021 regular season.
Analysis: Although Ward's snap count dipped for a second consecutive season due, in part, to four missed games, he saw an uptick from 51 to 67 in the tackles department and recorded a pair of interceptions after not recording any a season ago. He will be an unrestricted free agent following the season, so it remains to be seen whether to not Ward will remain a Chief going into 2022.

Ward was placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list Monday after testing positive for the virus, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Analysis: Ward was a late addition to the injury report ahead of last Thursday's win over the Chargers due to an illness, but he suited up for the contest and notched a season-high 10 tackles. Though the previous ailment wasn't COVID-19-related, Ward has now tested positive, putting his availability for the Chiefs' Week 16 game against the Steelers in question. If vaccinated, Ward will need to be asymptomatic of the virus within the next few days to have any chance of playing Sunday.

Ward (illness) totaled 10 tackles (seven solo) and two passes defensed in Thursday's 34-28 overtime win over the Chargers.
Analysis: The illness Ward picked up shortly before the game clearly didn't affect his performance, as he notched a new season high in tackles. He's up to 51 tackles (38 solo) in 10 games this season, exactly matching his tackling output from 14 contests last year.

Chance for Week 2 return
Ward is scheduled to undergo surgery for the hand fracture he suffered during Thursday's win over the Texans, but he could still have a shot to suit up Week 2 against the Chargers, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Ward will have three extra days to recover before the Chiefs next suit up in Los Angeles, so the door is at least still open for him to play with a cast on his hand. The team will also have the option of placing Ward on injured reserve, which would allow him to return after a minimum of three weeks. If Ward ends up limited or forced to miss time, rookie fourth-round pick L'Jarius Sneed would be a prime candidate for increased playing time.

Plays vital role in 2020
Ward accrued 74 tackles (56 solo), two interceptions and a forced fumble across 16 regular-season appearances in 2019.
Analysis: After logging just 140 defensive snaps in 2018, Ward claimed a starting spot this season and took advantage of the opportunity. The second-year cornerback allowed a 41.2 completion percentage on passes thrown his way and gave up just one touchdown all season. Ward still has another year left on his contract and should retain his starting job in 2020.
