49ers Elevate TE Brayden Willis from Practice Squad for Bears Matchup

The San Francisco 49ers have elevated tight end Brayden Willis from the practice squad to the active roster for Sunday night's game against the Chicago Bears. Willis, a third-year pro, would serve as the team's No. 3 tight end if George Kittle is inactive due to an ankle injury. He has appeared in five games this season, primarily on special teams, recording five tackles but has yet to catch a pass in his NFL career.
