SANTA CLARA -- When 49ers defensive coordinator Robert Saleh gets the go-ahead, strong safety Jaquiski Tartt will be back in the starting lineup.
The 49ers play the Seattle Seahawks on Sunday night in a game that will determine the NFC West champion. Tartt played a key role in the 49ers’ secondary through 12 games before exiting the lineup with fractured ribs.
“It would come from the performance staff on whether or not he’s healthy to get back with us,” Saleh said on Thursday. “I know he’s been practicing and trying to get back into it. As soon as he’s ready to roll and when we get clearance, he’ll be in there.
