The San Francisco 49ers have released the list of inactive players for their Week 12 matchup on the road against the Los Angeles Rams. These players will not suit up for Sunday's game.
Inactives:
Witherspoon is among the 49ers' inactive players for the third consecutive game and appears to be a healthy scratch. Running back Tevin Coleman (knee), tackle Tom Compton (concussion), linebacker Demetrius Flannigan-Fowles (hamstring), and cornerback K'Waun Williams (ankle) were all ruled out on
Friday's game status report.
On Saturday, the 49ers activated cornerback Richard Sherman and running backs
Raheem Mostert and
Jeff Wilson Jr. from injured reserve. The team also activated tackle
Trent Williams and linebacker Joe Walker from the reserve/COVID-19 list. All of those players are active.
Offensive lineman Tony Bergstrom and defensive linemen
Alex Barrett,
Darrion Daniels, and Willie Henry Jr. were all activated from the practice squad.
The 49ers had four players entering the game listed as "questionable." They are linebackers
Azeez Al-Shaair (illness) and
Dre Greenlaw (illness), defensive tackle
Javon Kinlaw (not injury related), and tight end Jordan Reed (illness). All four are cleared to play.

Kyle Shanahan would have liked to look into the possibility of adding Matthew Stafford this offseason. He was shocked by how quickly the deal between the Detroit Lions and the Las Angeles Rams went down. As a result, Shanahan never got a chance to get his team into the mix.
"I was trying to get involved in it," Shanahan shared earlier this month, sharing that he thought he had more time to do so.
But it was too late. The trade was on its way to being completed.
Now, Stafford is in the NFC West, and the San Francisco 49ers will have to face the veteran quarterback twice a season. News of the trade was shocking to many, especially those within

It's almost too easy to name the quarterback competition among the upcoming San Francisco 49ers training camp battles to watch. With players set to report to the team's facilities in Santa Clara next week, a lot of eyes will be focused on observing the progress of the No. 3 overall pick — quarterback Trey Lance.
Should it be among the most intriguing competitions, though? San Francisco's brass has repeatedly stated that Jimmy Garoppolo is expected to be the starter come Week 1. Head coach Kyle Shanahan has a lot of confidence in his veteran quarterback. His availability, not his ability, has always been the concern.
That doesn't mean the rookie won't try to prove himself a quick study and unseat Garoppolo.

49ers' Fred Warner ranks No. 3 among NFL.com's best off-ball linebackers

NFL Network analyst Bucky Brooks recently ranked his top five off-ball linebackers in the league, and San Francisco 49ers fans may be disappointed to learn that the team's star defender, Fred Warner, was not at the top of the list. He wasn't at No. 2 either.
Warner, who signed a five-year, $95 million contract extension last week, came in at No. 3, behind Bobby Wagner of the Seattle Seahawks and Darius Leonard of the Indianapolis Colts.
Maybe that will be further motivation for the 24-year-old linebacker, who has many years in front of him.
