Plaxico Burress's Super Bowl XLII ring has been sold for a record-breaking $280,600 at auction, making it the highest price ever paid for a Super Bowl ring. The ring, crafted from 14K white gold and encrusted with diamonds, had an estimated value of $100,000 but soared due to Burress's pivotal role in the Giants' victory over the New England Patriots in that game.

Meanwhile, former Giants offensive lineman Jon Feliciano announces his retirement after a noteworthy season that included a postseason victory, while the team also faces coaching changes. The Giants will look for a new running backs coach after Joel Thomas returned to the Saints. Additionally, assistant general manager Brandon Brown is not among the finalists for the Jaguars GM position, but his future remains bright.

The San Francisco 49ers' season has taken a severe downturn, with injuries crippling their roster and a current record of 5-7. Following a heavy loss to the Buffalo Bills, the team faces a daunting challenge to make the playoffs, trailing the NFC West-leading Seahawks by two games.

Key players such as Christian McCaffrey, Jordan Mason, and Kevin Givens are headed for injured reserve, adding to a long list of injured stars. The team has also faced personal tragedies, further complicating their efforts this season.

Brock Purdy, quarterback for the San Francisco 49ers, was unexpectedly inactive for Week 12 due to a shoulder issue, despite initial claims of mere soreness from head coach Kyle Shanahan. The team's injury reporting has raised concerns among fantasy managers.

Although Purdy is expected to play in the upcoming game against the Buffalo Bills, his performance may be affected by his injury and the absence of key offensive linemen. The 49ers' playoff hopes are dwindling, making this a crucial matchup.

The San Francisco 49ers face challenges ahead of their matchup against the Green Bay Packers, with offensive lineman Jon Feliciano officially ruled out due to a knee injury. Feliciano, who recently signed a one-year extension, has yet to play this season after starting on injured reserve.

In a positive turn, the 49ers have promoted veteran safety Tashaun Gipson Sr. to the active roster. Additionally, linebacker Jalen Graham and cornerback Nick McCloud have been activated from the practice squad. Key players like Trent Williams and Brock Purdy remain questionable or out for the game.
