The San Francisco 49ers today announced they had activated LB Fred Warner from the Reserve/Covid-19 List.
Warner returns as the 49ers take the field to prepare for the Arizona Cardinals Week 1. I don’t know that there was ever any doubt that Warner would play Week 1, but this is refreshing to know that he won’t have to wait until the last minute to suit up. Kliff Kingsbury raved about the 49ers linebackers’ speed, and Warner is a big part of that. If you recalled during the Halloween matchup last season, Warner had an opportunity for a pick-six, but he dropped it.
