When the San Francisco 49ers activated All-Pro linebacker Aldon Smith from the non-football injury list a week ago, it wasn't clear if he would play in Week 10. NFL Media Insider Ian Rapoport confirmed on Friday's edition of NFL Network's "Around the League Primetime" that Smith will indeed play, albeit in a limited role as a situational pass rusher to highlight his strengths. Source: NFL.com SteveRobWhatever's Take: While he was at rehab, Smith said he watched some games and worked out a few times a week to keep himself in shape for his return. Though defensive coordinator Vic Fangio said he looked rusty at practice this week, coach Jim Harbaugh was pleased with what he saw.
