Mafe (knee) is active for Thursday's contest against the 49ers.

Mafe will make his return to the field after missing the team's last two games while nursing a knee injury. The 25-year-old will likely return to his starting role at strong-side linebacker versus San Francisco. Over three games this season, Mafe has compiled 13 total tackles (nine solo), including 3.0 sacks, while also notching a pass defensed.
