Herbert (ankle) wasn't spotted on the field during the media-access portion of Wednesday's practice, Daniel Popper of The Athletic reports.
Per Popper, Herbert's injury is to his right ankle, the same leg as the plantar fascia injury that the quarterback dealt with in training camp. Meanwhile, head coach Jim Harbaugh told Kris Rhim of ESPN.com that Herbert was feeling a lot better Wednesday, while acknowledging that Easton Stick would be in line to fill in Sunday against the Steelers if Herbert doesn't progress enough this week to be available for the contest.
