Patrick Willis appears ready for Sunday

On Wednesday, 49ers coach Jim Harbaugh told reporters that he thinks linebacker Patrick Willis should be able to play this Sunday against Green Bay.

About a month ago, Willis fractured his hand and had surgery on it.

Willis did not participate during the preseason as a result of the injury. It's possible the star linebacker wears a cast to protect the hand if he does in fact play this weekend.
