Nick Bosa has been dealing with a hip injury since last week. The 49ers should get back Yetur Gross-Matos, which will help with depth

San Francisco 49ers general manager John Lynch had his weekly appearance on KNBR.

Lynch is hopeful that Charvarius Ward will be back in the lineup soon. He said, “Hopefully, we have Mooney back here in short order. From the start, we were going to do that on his time. It’s a devastating thing. It’s a ‘when you’re ready, you’re ready type thing.’ We just care more about the person and the family.”

One of the questions...

In this week’s numbers to know, we look at the changes the Seahawks have made since the last time the 49ers saw them, why there’s hope in the red zone for the Niners offense, and how we can expect Seattle to target Deommodore Lenoir

The San Francisco 49ers will look to finish off a third consecutive season sweep of the Seattle Seahawks on Sunday as the two meet at Levi’s Stadium.

These two teams met just last month when the then 2-3 49ers went up north and beat the 3-2 Seahawks by a score of 36-24. Neither team has picked...

Draymond offers Warner astute analogy for 49ers’ Super Bowl losses

“I think what people don’t realize is, and I think you will even learn this, is once you do it, you know how,” Green told Warner. “And once you know how to do it ... we won a championship in 2022, not because we were the best team. We won the championship in 2022 because we knew how. Like Steph [Curry], Klay [Thompson] and I knew how to win, and so we knew how to win a...

This has the makings of a fun TNF game.

Thursday Night Football games have a reputation for not being particularly great. The NFL has tried in recent years to rectify that with the addition of flex scheduling, but the short rest usually results in both teams looking sluggish more often than not. No one will be sluggish in this game: the Washington Comanders are traveling to face the Philadelphia Eagles, and the winner takes first place in the NFC East. Both teams are tied with seven wins and undefeated in the division. That all changes tonight. Well, unless there’s a...

The 49ers have their cornerback tandem of the future playing in big roles currently.

The San Francisco 49ers had some major news this week, as Deommodore Lenoir agreed to a five-year, $92 million extension with the team, locking him in the Bay Area through 2029.

Lenoir, a fifth-round pick in the 2021 NFL Draft, had been one of the team’s top players all season long, and the 49ers rewarded him with a long-term contract, locking up one of their young, ascending stars before he hit free agency this offseason.

Lenoir’s extension furthers a youth movement from the team, as San...

San Francisco has struggled on one side of the ball for quite some time. Can they improve?

The San Francisco 49ers have seemingly had an issue with their special teams unit for years, which led them to fire former special teams coordinator Richard Hightower and replace him with Brian Schneider.

Still, the issues have persisted, and it seems that the 49ers have a problem arising in nearly every game, be it in the return game or with one of their kickoff units.

With the issues ongoing, how have the 49ers looked to improve that unit during their preparation on a...

Breaking down the offenses between the San Francisco 49ers and Seattle Seahawks rosters

The San Francisco 49ers look to extend their winning streak to three with a victory over their NFC West foes in Seattle. Following their bye week, the Seahawks’ season is on the line Sunday, as a loss to San Francisco would lower their playoff probability to single digits. Meanwhile, the 49ers are healthier than they’ve been all season and are set for one of their patented late-season runs following their bye week.

Let’s compare the two offensive groups heading into Week 11.

Quarterback

Brock Purdy - 181/278,...

The 49ers head coach believes the team is getting better on their special teams units, while acknowledging it’s difficult to improve from within

Some think firing the coach is the answer whenever there are mistakes. Under Kyle Shanahan, the San Francisco 49ers' special teams have been underwhelming, to say the least.

Firing Brian Schneider will not fix anything. Not much has changed since the team changed coordinators after moving on from Richard Hightower, another coach fans wanted to be fired.

On Wednesday, Shanahan was asked if he’s made any changes to his practice time or if anything has been different...

Talanoa Hufanga and Charvarius Ward are free agents in 2025. The 49ers invested in the secondary this past draft, and they have not disappointed.

The best organizations in the NFL always think one and two years down the line. In the San Francisco 49ers' case, the $50 million they have in cap space in 2024 will be needed for potential cuts, dead money they need to eat moving forward and extending free agents who are vital to the team’s success.

Cornerback Deommodore Lenoir’s mega extension accounts for some of that future cap space. Brock Purdy’s inevitable deal will eat into...

49ers WR Deebo Samuel believed QB Brock Purdy was too hard on himself after a Week 10 win.

When you play quarterback in the NFL, you get too much credit when the team wins and too much of the blame when your team loses.

Statistically, San Francisco 49ers quarterback Brock Purdy is having a “down” year compared to what he did in 2023. His completion percentage is down four points, his yards per attempt is down nearly a yard, Purdy has nearly thrown as many interceptions as he did last year, and his quarterback rating is down 15 points while...

49ers Notes: Injuries, Lenoir’s extension and more

“The fact that he can play nickel inside and play the way he does, and play and cover guys outside is the types of guys you want in the secondary and special type of corner,” Shanahan said.

Lenoir described the moment he found out the deal was done, as he was told by his agent. It had been a deal long in the making, with discussions held starting in the offseason.

Lenoir, who is one of... 22 children, was overcome with...

The 49ers made a major move on Tuesday, securing a key piece to their future. Let’s break down Lenoir’s contract.

The San Francisco 49ers made a major in-season move on Tuesday, extending ascending cornerback Deommodore Lenoir to a five-year, $92 million deal that keeps him off the free agent market this offseason and with the organization for the foreseeable future.

Kyle Shanahan said he was “pumped” to get Lenoir’s contract done this afternoon and that it’s something the team tried to get done during the offseason before talks resurfaced a couple of weeks ago:

“He’s exactly what we want as...
