The 49ers made a few roster moves ahead of Sunday’s game against the Bears. The team ruled out LB Azeez Al-Shaair and edge rusher Dee Ford. Both players are suffering from concussions.
Edge rusher Jordan Willis had his roster exemption lifted and is now on the active roster. Defensive tackle Kevin Givens was activated from the injured reserve list. Willis should take Ford’s snaps, while Givens will play a major role with Javon Kinlaw and Maurice Hurst out.
Speaking of Kinlaw, he was placed on the injured reserve along with safety Jaquiski Tartt. TE Jordan Matthews and S Kai Nacua were activated from the team’s practice squad.
