The San Francisco 49ers have released the list of inactive players for their Week 6 matchup at home against the Los Angeles Rams. These players will not suit up for Sunday’s game.
Quarterback C.J. Beathard is inactive, which means Nick Mullens will back up Jimmy Garoppolo against the Rams.
Running back Jeff Wilson Jr. has been dealing with a calf injury and is inactive. Offensive lineman Tom Compton is active for the fifth consecutive game. Inactive for the second consecutive game is wide receiver Dante Pettis.
On Saturday, the 49ers activated wide receiver Richie James from injured reserve. He is among the team’s active players. Also active are cornerbacks Emmanuel Moseley and Ahkello Witherspoon, as the secondary starts to get healthier.
San Francisco activated defensive lineman Darrion Daniels and wide receiver Kevin White from the team’s practice squad. Daniels is inactive while White is active. Both will revert back to the practice squad after the game.
Below are the players who will be inactive for the 49ers:

Bill Barnwell of ESPN proposed 13 trades that could happen before the deadline on November 3. The San Francisco 49ers are involved in two hypothetical scenarios.
The first is a trade that sends defensive back Tarvarius Moore to the Cleveland Browns in exchange for tight end David Njoku. Barnwell notes the Browns’ desperation to find help at the safety position, and the 49ers could use someone to help replace injured tight end Jordan Reed, who suffered an MCL sprain on September 27.
