Tight end Delanie Walker, who took a hard shot to the hip, was the only 49er who didn't practice today. Walker said Tuesday the injury was not a long-term issue and that he'd play Sunday in St. Louis. If he can't, undrafted rookie Garrett Celek would see more action.
Meanwhile, two 49ers were in black, no-contact jerseys Wednesday. NFL sack leader Aldon Smith is dealing with a shoulder injury while safety and special teams player Darcel McBath apparently suffered a concussion Sunday and both were limited. Source: Sacramento Bee Attached Thumbnails
