Kickoff between the San Francisco 49ers and Detroit Lions is just hours away. Ahead of their Week 18 matchup at Levi's Stadium, the 49ers have announced several roster moves to prepare for the game.

Additionally, defensive lineman Alex Barrett and offensive lineman Drake Nugent have been elevated from the practice squad, making them available to play against the Lions.
