Benjamin (shoulder) is active Sunday against the 49ers.

Analysis:

Benjamin was limited in practice both Thursday and Friday after missing Wednesday's session, but all indications throughout the week suggested the Browns' top wideout would suit up for the afternoon contest. His presence will certainly be welcome in a banged-up receiving corps, as the Browns will be without Andrew Hawkins (concussion) for the contest, while Gary Barnidge (ankle) and Brian Hartline (hip) are dealing with respective ailments. Benjamin's prospects also improve with Johnny Manziel set to take over at quarterback, as the last time Manziel started (Week 10 against the Steelers), Benjamin hauled in seven passes on 11 targets for 113 yards.
