The San Francisco 49ers have announced the following roster moves ahead of tonight's game against the Seattle Seahawks at Lumen Field.
Promoted from the practice squad to the active roster:
DL Akeem Spence
Placed on injured reserve:
DL Hassan Ridgeway
Elevated from the practice squad:
CB Janoris Jenkins
WR Willie Snead IV
Ridgeway sustained a pectoral injury during Week 13's matchup against the Miami Dolphins and was expected to miss six to eight weeks. That would have pushed his potential return toward the end of the postseason, at the earliest.
The 49ers and Seahawks kick off tonight at 5:15 p.m. PT. San Francisco can clinch the NFC West title with a win, ensuring the team opens the playoffs at home.
