Nursing knee injury Ebukam didn't practice Tuesday due to a right knee injury, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.

Dealing with swelling in leg Coach Kyle Shanahan said Sunday that Ebukam has been sidelined in practice recently due to swelling in his leg, David Lombardi of The Athletic reports.
Impact Shanahan compared Ebukam's injury to normal wear and tear players experience early in training camp, but the team has elected to give him some rest as a precautionary measure. Although the 2017 fourth-rounder doesn't appear to be facing a long-term absence, it's not yet clear whether the injury will impact his availability for Saturday's exhibition game against the Chiefs.

Misses practice Ebukam was sidelined at Friday's practice due to lower-body soreness, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.
Impact Ebukam tallied 4.5 sacks in each of the past two seasons with the Rams before jumping ship to division-rival San Francisco this offseason. He is now looking to secure a role providing depth on the team's defensive line in 2021. His absence from practice due to lower-body soreness is not too surprising, as everyone's bodies are adjusting to training camp being in full swing. Still, it would be advantageous for a guy fighting for a job to return to the field sooner than later.
