What happened: Ladd McConkey will sit out Wednesday's practice because of a rib issue after being labeled day to day on Sunday. The missed session extends an injury update that began when he was listed questionable to return during a 26-14 loss on Sept. 14.

Why it matters: Any midweek absence puts more focus on whether McConkey can get back on the field later in the practice week. It also shows the rib issue from Sunday is still affecting his workload rather than clearing immediately.

What to watch: The next practice report will show whether McConkey returns in any capacity later this week. If he remains sidelined, his game-status outlook will stay in focus heading into the weekend.
