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.

According to Jeremy Fowler of ESPN, the San Francisco 49ers engaged in contract discussions with left tackle Trent Williams last week. The writer describes the talks as "extensive," explaining that coming to an agreement before the regular season's final weekend would have helped the 49ers' salary cap situation.
While the discussions didn't result in a new contract for the eight-time Pro Bowl selection, it sends a clear message that re-signing Williams is among the team's top priorities.

6 teams with better odds than the 49ers to add Deshaun Watson before Week 1

Despite the fractured relationship, the Houston Texans remain the favorites to have Deshaun Watson as their starting quarterback to kick off the 2021 season. However, should the relationship be damaged beyond repair, a trade could be in the quarterback's future if he chooses to force a divorce.
San Francisco 49ers fans would love to see what Watson paired with head coach Kyle Shanahan would mean for opposing defenses. However, that would also mean giving up a lot in terms of compensation to acquire the young playmaker, and oddsmakers have five teams — other than the Texans — listed as more likely destinations for the disgruntled quarterback.
Below are the 10 favorites to have Watson on their rosters during Week 1 of the 2021 season, per Bovada and
