The San Francisco 49ers come to Arizona in Week 15 to face the Cardinals and will do so dealing with a number of injuries. They have multiple starters on offense and defense who either will not play or might not play.
Five players were ruled out and another four are questionable for the game.
The details are below.

Ruled out
DT Arik Armstead (knee, foot), LB Oren Burks (knee), TE Ross Dwelley (ankle), DT Javon Hargrave (hamstring), RB Elijah Mitchell (knee)
Armstead missed the Niners’ game last week and will miss again, leaving a notable hole on the defensive interior. Hargrave will also miss, so the 49ers will play without their two best interior defenders. None of these players practiced at all during the week except for Mitchell on Wednesday.
Questionable
OL Aaron Banks (hip), OL Spencer Burford (knee), LB Dre Greenlaw (hip, ankle), CB Charvarius Ward (groin)
Banks was limited on Thursday and wasn’t able to go on Friday in practice. Burford was limited Thursday and Friday after sitting out Wednesday. Greenlaw and Ward were limited Friday after sitting out Wednesday and Thursday.
No game designation
CB Darrell Luter (hamstring)
Luter was a full participant all week.
