The 49ers take on the Los Angeles Rams on Sunday night. On the other side, linebacker Calvin Munson (2003-06) was on the field for 11 snaps on special teams in Miami's blowout win. The Dolphins travel to Denver for Week 6. Long snapper Aaron Brewer (2008-11) played eight special teams snaps in Arizona's 30-10 win over the New York Jets. The Cardinals will play in Dallas on Monday night.
