The San Francisco 49ers have a lot going on Sunday afternoon when the team hosts the Los Angeles Rams at Levi's Stadium. It is alumni weekend, and the 1994 Super Bowl championship team will be recognized with 30 members in attendance. The team will wear its all-white alternate throwback uniforms, which resemble those worn during the 1994 season.

The statues of Niner greats Dwight Clark and Joe Montana will be unveiled approximately four hours before kickoff. The memory and legacy of Clark, who passed away in June after a battle with ALS, will be honored throughout the game.

Add Raheem Mostert to the list of festivities this weekend. The 49ers running back will be presented with the 2018 Perry/Yonamine Unity Award before the start of Sunday's game.

The award, which was voted on by Mostert's teammates and coaches, is presented to the 49ers player who is a unifier and leader in the locker room, on the field, and in the community. The 49ers Foundation will make a $10,000 donation to Mostert's charity of choice, the Melanoma Research Foundation.

The Perry/Yonamine Unity Award is named after former 49ers players Joe Perry and Wally Yonamine, who each demonstrated the power of unity to make a difference on the field and in the community.
