Inactives:
- OL Ben Bartch
- WR Ronnie Bell
- DL Khalil Davis
- QB Joshua Dobbs
- DT Kevin Givens (groin)
- TE George Kittle (hamstring)
- CB Charvarius Ward (personal matter)
Heading into the game, ESPN's Adam Schefter reported that tight end George Kittle was unlikely to suit up. Kittle has been managing a hamstring injury, missing practice on Wednesday before participating in a limited capacity on Thursday and Friday. Despite his absence, Schefter noted there is a "realistic chance" the star tight end could return for the 49ers' next matchup against the Green Bay Packers.
Additionally, the 49ers announced that tight end Eric Saubert was expected to play through an illness.
Kittle was initially listed as questionable for the Week 11 game, along with guard Aaron Banks (thigh), defensive end Nick Bosa (hip), and tackle Trent Williams (ankle). Williams, Bosa, and Banks are active.
Defensive tackle Kevin Givens (groin), cornerback Charvarius Ward (personal matter), and offensive lineman Jon Feliciano (knee, injured reserve) were all ruled out ahead of this weekend's game.
The 49ers made several roster moves on Saturday, including activating defensive end Yetur Gross-Matos from injured reserve. However, punter Mitch Wishnowsky replaced him on the injured reserve list due to a back injury.
Cornerback Darrell Luter Jr. also landed on injured reserve after suffering a pelvis injury during practice earlier in the week.
To address Wishnowsky's likely absence, the 49ers signed punter Pat O'Donnell to the practice squad before promoting him to the active roster on Saturday. Additionally, the team elevated safety Tashaun Gipson and cornerback Nick McCloud from the practice squad for their Week 11 matchup.
