The move allows Warner to practice with the team for a 21-day period before either activating him or placing him on IR. Considering the postseason has begun, Warner's goal is to play before the 49ers are eliminated.
The 49ers' defensive captain dislocated and fractured his ankle in Week 6 against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. He has reportedly been rehabbing for about seven hours a day as he hopes to make a return.
Shanahan added that Warner can't "think with his heart and emotionally." There is a protocol that must be followed for him to be cleared.
Shanahan said Warner knows the coaching and front office have been watching and he hasn't needed to advocate that he's ready.
None of that seemed realistic when he first got hurt. But the doctors first mentioned the possibility of a return a few weeks after his surgery and Warner has been working as hard as possible to make that a reality.
Warner said there are still more steps he needs to clear before doctors will allow him to play and said he won't play if it puts him at an added risk of injury.
"It truly did take an army to help me get to this point," he said.
