The San Francisco 49ers head into Super Bowl LVIII healthy. The only player ruled out is defensive tackle Kalia Davis, who had an outside chance of getting a snap had he been healthy.
San Francisco promoted defensive tackles Alex Barrett and T.Y. McGill to the active roster. That doesn’t necessarily mean those two will play. The Niners made a similar roster move in the NFC Championship and neither player who was called up played.
The benefit of elevating a player to the active roster is that he gets a game check, even without stepping onto the field.
