Updating a previous report, San Francisco 49ers LB Fred Warner (ankle) is ahead of schedule in his recovery from a dislocated and fractured ankle, according to NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport and Mike Garafolo. However, a return to the field during the postseason appears unlikely, unless the team reaches the NFC Championship Game or Super Bowl LX, according to multiple sources. Any potential playoff appearance would probably be in spot duty, since an early return could put Warner at risk of further injury.
