The 49ers activated Week 1 starting running back Elijah Mitchell and linebacker Azeez Al-Shaair off injured reserve to be available to face the Los Angeles Chargers on Sunday night.
The 49ers elevated defensive lineman T.Y. McGill from the practice squad to be available to face the Chargers at Levi's Stadium for the Week 10 game.
The 49ers also have cleared four players who sat out the 49ers' Week 8 game due to injuries: fullback Kyle Juszczyk , receivers Deebo Samuel and Jauan Jennings , and linebacker Dre Greenlaw . The 49ers are likely to be down to just one of their four starting defensive linemen from early in the season. Javon Kinlaw is on injured reserve, while Arik Armstead is out, and Samson Ebukam is doubtful.Mitchell has not played since he sustained a torn medial collateral ligament in his knee in the 49ers' season-opening loss to the Chicago Bears. He led the team in rushing last season but rejoins the picture as the clear No. 2 back.
Mitchell is likely to see a greatly reduced role after the 49ers acquired running back Christian McCaffrey in a trade last month with the Carolina Panthers.
