Patrick Willis is on the sideline in street clothes, his left foot in a walking boot.
Willis, who left the locker room wearing a walking boot on his left foot, said after the game that X-rays were taken but he was not sure of the severity of the injury according to ESPN.
“We’ll find out more (Tuesday),” Willis said as he limped to the team bus after the 49ers’ 31-17 victory against the Rams.
A.J. Green is dealing with the same toe issue, and he has missed one game already and expected to miss this weeks game. If the injury is serious Willis could be out longer, but expect him to be out at least 2 weeks.
