Ricky Pearsall Active, Ji’Ayir Brown Out for 49ers vs. Seahawks Matchup
The San Francisco 49ers have finalized their inactive roster ahead of the crucial NFC Divisional Round game against the Seattle Seahawks. This highly anticipated matchup will take place at Lumen Field, with the 49ers seeking to advance further in the postseason.
Active and Inactive Players
The limitations on team rosters mean careful management of player availability. The following key players are involved in this matchup:
- Active Players:
- Ricky Pearsall (Wide Receiver)
- Dee Winters (Linebacker)
- Luke Gifford (Linebacker)
- Inactive Player:
- Ji’Ayir Brown (Safety)
Player Conditions and Developments
Ricky Pearsall, Dee Winters, and Luke Gifford were initially listed as questionable earlier in the week. However, they have progressed well in their practice sessions, indicating their readiness for the game.
Pearsall and Winters both participated in limited drills through the week. Gifford made a notable return to limited participation after an absence early in the week.
On the offensive line, T Trent Williams showed significant improvement, fully participating in practice by Wednesday and Thursday without any game designation.
Injury Updates
Unfortunately, Ji’Ayir Brown will not be playing due to a hamstring injury sustained during the Wild Card victory over the Philadelphia Eagles. His absence is a significant blow for the secondary.
Another major update comes from the defensive unit, where Fred Warner has returned to practice. After a serious ankle injury in Week 6, Warner’s rehabilitation has led to the opening of his 21-day practice window. However, the team has confirmed he will not be activated for Saturday’s game.
Conclusion
The 49ers are poised for a challenging contest against the Seahawks, with their strategy being shaped by the active status of their key players and the unfortunate absence of Ji’Ayir Brown. Fans will be watching closely as the team aims to enhance their postseason run.
