SAN FRANISCO — This is the live blog for the pregame of the 49ers’ divisional playoff game against the Packers. I’ll update this frequently with information and analysis from the press box.

The 49ers inactives are Scott Tolzien, Billy Cundiff, Trenton Robinson, Jewel Hampton, Tony-Jerod Eddie, Joe Looney and Ian Williams.

The Packers inactives are WR Jarrett Boykin, RB Alex Green, CB Davon House, LB Frank Zombo, TE D.J. Williams, DT Jordan Miller and DE Jerel Worthy.

The Packers have five wide receivers active for this game: Randall Cobb, Jordy Nelson, Greg Jennings, James Jones and Donald Driver.

3:49 David Akers just started taking warmup kicks. I’ll keep you updated.

3:52 Next, he makes a 50-yard kick from the right hash.

4:22 Neither Justin Smith or Aaron Rodgers has come out to the field yet.

4:24 Colin Kaepernick spends about two hours pregame warming up his legs, and about 20 minutes warming up his arm. He rarely stands around. He’s always stretching or bouncing or running.

4:25 Aaron Rodgers just took the field along with most of the Packers. Justin Smith is still in the locker room.

4:28 There he is. Justin Smith is in the back corner of the south end zone stretching. He’s wearing that brace on his left arm.
