The ankle injury Brooks suffered in Tampa Bay will keep him out at least four games and thins Green Bay's backfield again.
San Francisco needed the spot to bring back Ogbo Okoronkwo, ending the four-time Pro Bowl pass rusher's stay after less than two weeks.
The fullback has a hyperextended knee and a bone bruise from Sunday's win over Denver, and Kyle Shanahan will spread his role among the tight ends for the trip to Seattle.
