The San Francisco 49ers announced on Saturday that they have activated running back Mike Davis from the Injured Reserve/Designated for Return List to the 53-man roster. In order to make room on the roster, the team placed linebacker Michael Wilhoite on the Injured Reserve List.
Davis (5-9, 217) was originally drafted by the 49ers in the fourth round (126th overall) of this year’s NFL Draft. He registered 47 total yards (24 rushing and 23 receiving) in five games on offense this season prior to being placed on the Injured Reserve/Designated for Return List on November 7.
