The game has little meaning for the Niners, who can do no worse than a No. 2 pick in the 2017 NFL Draft. But for Seattle, draft seeding is still on the line. A Seahawks win, paired with an Atlanta Falcons loss, would put Seattle at the No. 2 seed.

But the 49ers can thwart those chances with a win at Levi’s Stadium in Week 17.

San Francisco is going to be shorthanded, thanks to a plethora of injuries suffered in recent weeks.

And while much of the focus will be on Kelly’s likely last game with the team, it also could be the final contest for quarterback Colin Kaepernick in a Niners uniform as well.

So it’s fitting he goes up against his longtime nemesis, the Seahawks.
