Conklin caught seven of 10 targets for 101 yards and rushed once for two yards across 13 regular-season games in 2025.

The 30-year-old from Central Michigan was a healthy scratch in five of the Chargers' final six games this season, including the wild-card loss to the Patriots, as he slid down the depth chart following the emergence of rookie Oronde Gadsden. Conklin posted his lowest receiving yardage total since 2019 but still averaged 14.4 yards per reception, the second-highest mark of his career. Set to become a free agent this offseason, Conklin could find work with a team in need of tight-end depth ahead of the 2026 campaign.

Ferguson (hamstring) was a full participant at Wednesday's walkthrough, Adam Grosbard of The Orange County Register reports.

Ferguson missed the past two games due to a hamstring injury, but a full listing Wednesday indicates that the issue is behind him. He thus will be in the mix for snaps and targets among Rams tight ends alongside Colby Parkinson, Tyler Higbee and Davis Allen for Sunday's divisional-round contest at Chicago.

The 49ers elevated Willis from the practice squad to the active roster.

Willis was active in seven regular-season games for San Francisco in 2025, playing 98 snaps on special teams and 13 on offense. The 26-year-old will likely be a depth option for the 49ers' playoff matchup against the Seahawks, behind Luke Farrell and Jake Tonges as they take over for George Kittle (Achilles)

The 49ers placed Kittle (Achilles) on injured reserve Wednesday.

This is merely a procedural move after Kittle was diagnosed with a torn right Achilles following this past Sunday's wild-card victory in Philadelphia. Coach Kyle Shanahan announced Tuesday that Kittle was slated for surgery Wednesday, after which point his rehab will start in earnest. Considering the timing of the injury and the expected lengthy recovery timeline, Kittle appears destined to miss a decent portion of the 2026 season. As for the 49ers' current playoff run, Jake Tonges will be the biggest beneficiary as a pass catcher among the remaining tight ends, but Luke Farrell and Brayden Willis also are on hand for snaps and targets.

Henry (knee) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice.

Henry was not spotted at the early portion of Wednesday's practice open to the media, Taylor Kyles of CLNSMedia.com reports, but it appears he managed to get in limited reps despite having to manage a knee injury. Henry has scored three times in his last four appearances, including a 3-64-1 receiving line managed during New England's wild-card round win over the Chargers. He will have two more chances to upgrade to full practice reps ahead of Sunday's divisional-round game against the Texans.

Kincaid (knee/calf) was limited at practice Wednesday.

Kincaid was also listed as limited in Tuesday's walk-through practice, which gives the tight end one more opportunity to work fully before the Bills assign injury designations for Saturday's divisional-round game against the Broncos. Assuming Kincaid is available for the contest, he figures to remain a focal point in a Buffalo pass-catching corps that's been thinned-out by injuries to WRs Joshua Palmer (ankle), Tyrell Shavers (knee) and Gabe Davis (knee).

The 49ers signed Rucci to the practice squad Wednesday.

Rucci had a tryout with the team Tuesday, and the tight end has officially joined the practice squad in anticipation of the 49ers' divisional round matchup with the Seahawks. With starting tight end George Kittle (Achilles) suffering a season-ending injury in last Sunday's playoff win over the Eagles, Rucci will add depth to the position group. The 24-year-old is a strong candidate for elevation to the active roster ahead of Saturday's game against the Seahawks.

The Chargers signed Yassmin to a reserve/future contract Tuesday.

Yassmin spent the entire 2025 season on the Chargers' practice squad after initially being cut from the roster at the end of training camp. He has yet to appear in a regular-season game since entering the league in May of 2024 as an undrafted free agent. Yassmin will be a member of the Chargers' 90-man roster once the offseason begins, which will allow him to participate in OTAs and minicamp and make a positive impression with the coaching staff before training camp commences in July.

The Chargers signed McLachlan to a reserve/future contract Tuesday.

McLachlan was cut from the Chargers' practice squad Jan. 6 but will be on the team's 90-man roster when the NFL offseason officially begins Feb. 9. That gives the 2024 sixth-rounder the opportunity to impress coaching staff during OTAs and minicamp and gain momentum heading into training camp.

Arroyo (knee), who remains on IR, was a full participant at practice Tuesday, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.

Arroyo had his 21-day practice window opened last Wednesday, and by all accounts he appears healthy enough to play in Saturday's divisional-round matchup against the 49ers. In order for the rookie second-round pick to take the field versus San Francisco, though, Seattle will first have to officially activate him from IR.
