49ers Linebacker To Return In Week 10

He's only played three games this season.

San Francisco 49ers linebacker Azeez Al-Shaair said that he expects to play Sunday versus the Los Angeles Chargers.

Al-Shaair was placed the 49ers' injured reserve after he suffered a sprained MCL in Week 3 against the Denver Broncos. It appears he's finally ready to return, however.

Last season, Shaair recorded 102 total tackles, two sacks, one forced fumble, two fumble recoveries, one interception and five passes defended over 13 games.

96 Tackles
9 TFL
1.5 Sacks
1 INT
5 PBU
1 FF
2 FR
