49ers Vs. Giants Injury Report: Frank Gore A Little Ginger On The Ankle

The San Francisco 49ers and New York Giants each released their injury reports for Wednesday. There was nothing particularly surprising about the reports as Frank Gore and Ray McDonald were both limited in practice. Gore is getting over an ankle sprain while McDonald is still dealing with his hamstring strain. The good news on McDonald is that he was a DNP at practice all last week, so this is an improvement.

Questions still surround Frank Gore's status for Sunday. CSN Bay Area has some video of Gore during individual drills. Early on in the video, everything looks OK for the most part. However, around 20 seconds in you start to see some favoring of the ankle. By the end it seems a bit more distinctive. That is not to say he won't be good to go on Sunday, but it is worth noting as we move into Thursday and Friday practices.

Morran Norris & Bruce Miller standing side by side in the above video

A bit surprised Norris appears to be physical bigger (and obviously slower) than Bruce.

Not that it matters….since I dont see Bruce ever giving up that starter spot now.

Actually, they are physically close to same size....

9ers Roster Indicates:

Norris is 6-1 / 250 lbs and Miller is 6-1 / 248 lbs….so maybe Norris a bit more muscular.

Gore is 5-9 / 217 lbs and Hunter is 5-7 / 199 lbs

Miller

Bruce Miller is much more athletic, he has that position locked up for the foreseeable future. I’m amazed he has played so well given his background on D

he has a little Ginger

on his ankle? So THAT"S what happened to Jeff Garcia.

[Poorly Wrought THING] is what Brian Sabean would have made if he were a [THING-maker] instead of a MLB GM

by zenbitz on Nov 9, 2011 5:55 PM PST reply actions  

Let Hunter Start

And see what he does. Remmeber when FG sprained a second ankle against Minnesota in that He-who-shall-not-be-named heart breaker? I am so ticked off just thinking about that game. AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH!!!

Looking to put San Fran*six-o* here some time soon!

What does that game have to do with anything?

Either

MM is going to loose alot of cred with Harbaugh for releasing that video or Harbaugh wanted it shown.

I though they didn’t want videos of practice out there?

I hear you

I guess what I meant was showing how Frank looked. Knowing that the Giants will be game planning for him.

I have a feeling Frank is gonna start.

Hopefully we don’t ask him to take as many snaps/carries as he has been though. Perhaps the aerial game will be more predominant this week.

by whatsURdeal on Nov 9, 2011 6:14 PM PST reply actions  

I didn't mean he would actually 'take snaps".

Ha ha. I meant be involved in plays as a blocker.

by whatsURdeal on Nov 9, 2011 6:19 PM PST up reply actions  

The tank will suit up

    I believe Frank was merely going at it light in practice." He’ll be ready" on Sunday. NYG VS. 49ers will be like a playoff game. Winning this game would bring us withi two of a clinch

I would go with your version anyway. Not sure he would appreciate being called a titty

It's Wednesday

Frank will be locked and loaded by 1 P.M. on Sunday. Bigger concern is Ray. Ricky J-F did a nice job filling in but didn’t really pressure the QB in Washington. We’re going to need to get pressure on Eli with just 3 or 4 guys.

Start Dixon, bring in Hunter, then Gore in the 4th, let Gore finish the game. Gore could finish the game and I mean finish it just like he did in Philly.

by bmcrae83@yahoo.com on Nov 9, 2011 6:56 PM PST reply actions  

Dixon is incompetent

Rather have hunter start. He’s 3rd string for a reason…

by MarineVet49erFan on Nov 9, 2011 11:33 PM PST via mobile up reply actions  

Random thought unrelated to the article.

Anyone think that if the 49ers defense keeps doing this for another year or two that Vic might get a Head coaching job. What about Roman. Dont want to loose these guys. Or else were right back to square one no matter how good Harbaugh is

by Collin B on Nov 9, 2011 7:09 PM PST reply actions  

I don't think Roman will get that kind of cred.

At least not real soon, maybe Vic though.

I'm not feeling witty enough right now

by jonesin25 on Nov 9, 2011 11:25 PM PST up reply actions  

I feel like Vic's been in the league a while

…and GM’s know what they’ll get out of him. He’s not a ‘rah rah’ type guy. He just doesn’t come across as a field general.

They’re good coaches, for sure. And in this league, they’ll get plenty of looks. I like that a guy like Tomsula is learning under Vic, and that the wealth these coordinators bring extends beyond the score on sunday.

Wait..... soo... what you're saying is....

…Bruce Miller accidentally sat on Frank Gore’s ankle?

is in no way “Little”

So maybe Ron Howard?

Since when did Zach Keasey

join the 49ers staff?

Harbaugh will find a QB and he will succeed.

by goatfather on Nov 9, 2011 10:20 PM PST reply actions  

Gore will play

nothing can stop that dude.

Despite the ankle being sore, he’ll practice just to keep it loose- and I’m guessing the trainers have a good idea of how much work will be necessary. He’s going to be too important in protection to miss the game on sunday. And when they mix in Hunter, there’s likely to be a lot of three TE sets to give Hunter access to the edges.

Speaking of….Justin Peele FTW this week?

by t p on Nov 10, 2011 11:04 AM PST reply actions  

I expect him to go, and Nicks, but not Bradshaw

and unrelated, reading the phrase “a little ginger” puts this in my head and I can’t help it:

Now everyone will say Eli is in Bradys class. F*ck me
