The San Francisco 49ers have released the list of inactive players for their Week 12 matchup at home against the New Orleans Saints. These players will not suit up for Sunday's game.
Inactives:
- DL Arik Armstead (foot, ankle)
- RB Tyrion Davis-Price
- TE Tyler Kroft
- LB Curtis Robinson
- OL Nick Zakelj
Wide receiver
Deebo Samuel, who was listed as "questionable" to play this afternoon due to a hamstring injury, is active. He was
limited during practices this past week.
San Francisco listed defensive lineman Arik Armstead as "doubtful." He is the only player listed as inactive due to an injury. While Armstead finally returned to practice on Friday, he has not played in a game since Week 4 due to foot and ankle injuries.
On Saturday, the 49ers
promoted defensive lineman T.Y. McGill from the practice squad to the active roster. In addition, the team waived defensive lineman Kemoko Turay to make room on the roster.

Deebo Samuel and Brock Purdy are why the 49ers can afford to pay Brandon Aiyuk
It's evident that the San Francisco 49ers engaged in long-term financial planning. Much discussion has centered around the feasibility of the team committing significant financial resources to two wide receivers, Brandon Aiyuk and Deebo Samuel. Some skeptics question the wisdom of such heavy investment in a single position, especially considering that the 49ers handed Samuel a substantial three-year extension merely two years ago.
Adding complexity to this debate is the impending contract extension for quarterback Brock Purdy, positioning him to become the highest-paid player on the team. He will likely even become one of the NFL's highest-paid players. Where he ranks in average salary will depend upon whether he can replicate the stellar performance of his Pro Bowl 2023
Mike Silver on how Deebo Samuel's contract might be the starting point for a Brandon Aiyuk extension
With the 2024 NFL Draft less than a week away, it's common for the rumor mill to start churning, especially with players who are actively seeking a new contract. It was just two short years ago that WR Deebo Samuel requested a trade from the San Francisco 49ers prior to draft day, only for cooler heads to prevail and eventually agree to a new deal.
Now, it's WR Brandon Aiyuk's turn to try and get paid and rumors surfaced over the weekend that he too would request to be dealt. While that report was quickly shot down by his agent, there's still a lot of discussion about Aiyuk's future and if other teams will come calling on draft night.

49ers sign WR Trent Taylor, reuniting with former draft pick
The San Francisco 49ers announced the signing of wide receiver Trent Taylor to a one-year deal, reuniting with the team's former fifth-round draft pick out of Louisiana Tech.
Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports Bay Area was the first to report that the 49ers were discussing a potential reunion with Taylor. The receiver was part of head coach Kyle Shanahan and general manager John Lynch's first draft class in 2017 and spent his first four NFL seasons with the team.
