The San Francisco 49ers announced that the team has activated wide receiver Mohamed Sanu Sr. from injured reserve ahead of Sunday's NFC Championship Game matchup against the Los Angeles Rams. The 49ers opened a roster spot on Tuesday by waiving safety Jarrod Wilson.
Sanu landed on injured reserve on November 15, 2021, due to a knee injury. He caught 15 passes for 177 yards through eight games before being placed on injured reserve.
The Cincinnati Bengals made Sanu a third-round draft pick out of Rutgers in 2012. This season is his second stint with the 49ers.

San Francisco 49ers rookie wideout Danny Gray spoke with the media for the first time since his draft interview, as he prepared for the 49ers' rookie minicamp, which is slated to begin on Friday.
Gray, who was selected with the last pick in the third round of the 2022 NFL Draft, 105th overall, is a player with electrifying straight-line speed, which was confirmed with his 4.33 40-yard dash at the combine.
However, Gray's talents aren't limited to just his speed; he works well with the ball in his hands and can be physical after the catch, despite his relatively slight 186-pound frame.
When addressing his skillset, Gray acknowledged the biggest development over his

He quickly signed with the 49ers, who reportedly gave him $100,000 in guaranteed money with a $10,000 signing bonus.
