49ers make roster move to officially activate Kwon Alexander

SANTA CLARA — Linebacker Kwon Alexander’s comeback is a go.

Defensive tackle Kentavius Street’s comeback is done.

Alexander officially got activated off the injured-reserve list Friday by the 49ers, who’ll host the Minnesota Vikings in Saturday’s divisional-round playoff game at Levi’s Stadium.

In the corresponding roster move, the 49ers returned Street to injured reserve, where he spent most of this season until making his debut over the final three games of the regular season.

Alexander tore his left-pectoral muscle Oct. 31 at Arizona, and although he only returned to practice last week, he’s kept up his conditioning and should play a factor against the Vikings, albeit in a part-time role.
