49ers DT James Thompson Returns to Limited Work

The 49ers had only one change to their injury report Wednesday: Defensive tackle James Thompson (hamstring) returned to limited work after missing practice a day earlier. Thompson's return is positive news for a team that lost defensive tackle Alfred Collins to a knee injury earlier this week.

Defensive end Nick Bosa (knee) and tight end George Kittle (Achilles) remained limited. Bosa is recovering from an ACL tear and experienced soreness during his recovery, while Kittle is working back from an Achilles tear suffered in the playoffs. Both players are expected to play Thursday but likely on snap counts. afrikasportnews.co.za
