The 49ers got some good injury news Saturday ahead of their NFC West showdown with the Rams. Starting right guard Mike Person was not on the list of inactives and will play against Los Angeles. There weren’t any surprises on the health front.
Here’s the list of players who won’t suit up for San Francisco:
QB CJ Beathard
DL Jullian Taylor
SS Jaquiski Tartt
DE Dee Ford
TE Daniel Helm
RB Jeff Wilson Jr.
WR Jordan Matthews
Person had a tough time in Week 6 against the Rams in Los Angeles. He struggled against the Falcons in Week 15 and was questionable this week with a neck injury. He’ll be worth keeping an eye on with the 49ers aiming to get their offensive groove back.
Perhaps the most noteworthy addition to the inactives is tight end Daniel Helm. The undrafted rookie was suited up last week with a slew of injuries on the defensive side.
San Francisco may utilize a lot of multiple tight end sets against a good Rams defensive front. That includes George Kittle, Ross Dwelley and Levine Toilolo.
Here is the Rams list of inactives:
