The 49ers had two injury concerns for their Week 1 clash with the Steelers, both of those have now been removed.
Tight end George Kittle and starting cornerback Charvarius Ward were both listed as questionable for the season opener.
However, both are officially active to face Pittsburgh, Kittle having overcome a groin injury and Ward succeeding in shaking off a heel problem.
Here are the 49ers' inactives:
- QB Brandon Allen
- OL Nick Zakelj
- DL Kalia Davis
- LB Dee Winters
- LB Jalen Graham
- TE Brayden Willis
- RB Tyrion Davis-Price
There are no real surprises among the inactives, which including three members of their draft class.
Both Winters and Graham performed excellently in preseason but their absence was telegraphed when the 49ers elevated the more experienced Curtis Robinson from the practice squad.
