49ers-Seahawks Injury Report: Several key players return to practice

The San Francisco 49ers are preparing for their Wild Card playoff contest against the Seattle Seahawks on Saturday at Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara, California.

San Francisco held a light practice on Tuesday due to the shorter-than-usual preparation time and having just played in a game two days ago.

Linebacker Dre Greenlaw and guard Aaron Banks returned to practice after not playing against the Arizona Cardinals this past Sunday. Both were limited but remain possibilities to play in this weekend’s playoff game.

Another linebacker, Demetrius Flannigan-Fowles, was a limited practice participant after sustaining a neck sprain early in Sunday’s game.

Defensive tackle Kevin Givens returned to practice for the first time since suffering an MCL sprain on December 11 against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

Below are Tuesday’s practice participation reports for both the 49ers and Seahawks, which were provided by the 49ers Communications staff.
