Jim Harbaugh spoke to the media for his Monday press conference and updated the status of cornerback Jourdan Lewis and running back Kareem Walker, who both did not play on Saturday afternoon.
Harbaugh said after the game that Lewis had a injury he was dealing with that was healed, but did not want to risk anything by playing him against Hawaii. ESPN’s Ed Cunningham, who was on the TV broadcast doing color commentary, had speculated during the game that Lewis was out due to a disciplinary issue.

Harbaugh says Kareem Walker is working through something academically. Giving him room to concentrate on academics the next few weeks.
