The San Francisco 49ers are preparing for their Week 6 contest against the Browns on Sunday at Cleveland Browns Stadium in Cleveland, Ohio.
Browns quarterback Deshaun Watson, who sat out a Monday practice due to a bruised right rotator cuff, missed Wednesday's session. His status for Sunday remains uncertain.
Head coach Kyle Shanahan was asked about planning for the Browns while their quarterback situation remains unclear.
"We've got to be ready for all of them," Shanahan declared. "We know they like to run the ball. We know their quarterbacks can make plays. And we'll be ready for all three, though."
49ers running back Elijah Mitchell continues to miss time due to a knee injury. He has been inactive for the last two games.
Guard Aaron Banks remains day-to-day with a mild shoulder strain sustained on Sunday against the Dallas Cowboys. He was a limited participant in practice.
Below are Wednesday's practice participation reports for both the 49ers and Browns, which were provided by the 49ers Communications staff.
