Chargers coach Norv Turner confirmed they would be on the Chargers' inactive list for the game, which has major implications in the AFC West and NFC West races.
49ers linebackers Patrick Willis and Takeo Spikes will play, although both have broken right arms, a source with knowledge of the situation told NFL.com senior writer Steve Wyche.
