If 49ers defensive lineman Arik Armstead didn’t have an injury history, this might not be that big of a deal. It might not be anyway.
According to Ian Rapoport of the NFL Network, Armstead recently had a minor foot surgery, and would miss some of the spring workouts with the team.
While described as a minor cleanup, Armstead’s dealt with enough other stuff throughout his career.
He missed 10 games last season with a broken hand, and was out half the season in 2016 with a shoulder problem.
The 49ers picked up the 2015 first-rounder’s fifth-year option for 2019 earlier this offseason.
