Bethune (knee) is active ahead of Monday night's matchup against the Lions, Lindsey Pallares of the 49ers' official site reports. Bethune was added back to the 49ers' active roster earlier Monday after missing the team's last five contests due to a knee injury, so it's no surprise he'll return to the field in Week 17.

He was designated to return from IR on Friday and has now been added to the 49ers' active roster after practicing in full throughout the week.

Bethune (knee) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Packers, Matt Barrows of The Athletic reports. Bethune sprained his MCL in the first quarter of this past Sunday's loss to the Seahawks.

Coach Kyle Shanahan said Tuesday that Bethune sustained a sprained MCL during Sunday's game versus the Seahawks and will be out for a while, Eric Branch of the San Francisco Chronicle reports. Bethune was forced out of San Francisco's contest in Week 11 early by a knee injury, and it's now confirmed that it is a somewhat significant issue. He has contributed substantially on special teams so far this season, so the 49ers will have to try to find a way to replace his production in that phase until he's able to return.
Bethune (knee) has been ruled out for the rest of Sunday's game against the Seahawks, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports. Bethune suffered a knee injury on a kickoff during the first quarter.
