49ers' Jeff Wilson: Practicing on limited basis

Wilson (knee) will be a limited practice participant Wednesday, Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

Meanwhile, lead back Elijah Mitchell (knee/concussion) will sit out the first session of Week 14, potentially leaving Wilson in line to pick up a start Sunday against Cincinnati if he can move past what head coach Kyle Shanahan termed as a flareup of his surgically repaired knee. Both Wilson and Mitchell succumbed to their respective knee injuries in last week's loss to the Seahawks, and while neither back looks to be dealing with a serious concern, Mitchell has just six days to clear concussion protocol after entering it Monday. JaMycal Hasty and Kyle Jusczyk are the healthy backfield options on the active roster, with both primarily restricted to passing-down work despite the 49ers' numerous and never-ending injuries at the position.
