Head coach Kyle Shanahan revealed that the San Francisco 49ers plan to activate wide receiver Ray-Ray McCloud from the injured reserve list, a move likely to occur on Saturday. This decision ensures the team will have their special teams returner back in time for the playoffs, providing a significant boost for that unit.
On Friday, when asked about the plan for McCloud, Shanahan said, "It's a technicality, but we've already made the decision. He'll be up."
San Francisco must also make a corresponding move to create space for McCloud on the 53-man roster. Shanahan didn't disclose the specific move, mentioning that the coaches haven't spoken to the affected player yet.
