Ricky Pearsall Out, Yetur Gross-Matos Activated for Week 16 vs. Colts

The San Francisco 49ers have announced their inactive roster for the upcoming Week 16 matchup against the Indianapolis Colts at Lucas Oil Stadium. This pivotal game will feature several key players sidelined due to injuries.

Inactive Players for the 49ers

The inactive list includes some notable names:

  • Ricky Pearsall – Wide Receiver (Knee, Ankle)
  • Renardo Green – Cornerback (Neck)
  • Kurtis Rourke – Quarterback (Knee)

Head coach Kyle Shanahan discussed Pearsall’s condition, noting that the player was “close” to returning but ultimately not ready for the game. This absence will impact the team’s receiving options during the contest.

Key Player Activation

In a positive turn for the 49ers, defensive lineman Yetur Gross-Matos has been activated from the Injured Reserve list. He was previously listed as questionable due to a hamstring injury but will now be available for the game.

Additional Roster Moves

To enhance their lineup depth, the 49ers also elevated two players from the practice squad:

  • Eli Apple – Cornerback
  • Eric Kendricks – Linebacker

As the 49ers prepare for this important matchup, these roster changes are expected to influence the team’s performance against the Colts during Week 16.
