Oren Burks Active For NFC Championship

San Francisco 49ers linebacker Oren Burks (shoulder) is active for the NFC Championship meeting with the Lions. Burks suffered a shoulder injury at practice on Thursday and carried a questionable tag heading into Sunday. It was reported that he wasn't expected to suit up. However, trainers monitored him during pregame warmups, so he's good to go. The 28-year-old finished the 2023-24 campaign with a career-high 46 total tackles and one sack.
