Otherwise, there were few surprises on the inactive lists. The biggest names on the 49ers' side were Nnamdi Asomugha and Patrick Willis, both of whom did not practice this week. The team received the good news that Vernon Davis would be active, however. The tight end was limited throughout the week with a hamstring injury.
On the Rams' side, right tackle Rodger Saffold and defensive end William Hayes were listed as inactive as expected. Neither player practiced this week.
