Ruled out for Sunday Bartch (foot) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's game against the Jets, Tim Twentyman of the Lions' official site reports.

Impact Bartch was unable to practice in Week 3 as he dealt with a foot injury he may have picked up during the Lions' Week 2 loss to the Bills. The Lions will only lose out on a depth option this week, as starting left guard Christian Mahogany has recovered from his hip injury enough to suit up for Sunday's contest against the Jets.

Impact A stint on injured reserve requires a player to miss at least the next four games. With the 49ers on a bye Week 14, Bartch wouldn't be eligible to be activated from IR until the playoffs, assuming San Francisco qualifies for the postseason. Spencer Burford is slated to start at left guard for at least the rest of the regular season in Bartch's absence.

Officially returning in Week 10 Bartch (ankle) is active for Sunday's battle against the Rams, Briana Jeannel of the 49ers' official site reports.

Impact Bartch landed on IR in mid-September due to an ankle injury and missed seven games. He was activated off injured reserve Saturday and has been deemed ready to return for a key NFC West battle versus Los Angeles. It's unclear if Bartch will step back into a starting role, as Spencer Burford has played well in Bartch's absence.

Impact Bartch had been on injured reserve since Week 3 with an ankle injury. Now activated, the 27-year-old is questionable for Sunday's game against the Rams. If he is able to suit up, he will resume his spot at left guard in place of Spencer Burford.
