The San Francisco 49ers were quiet on deadline day, not making any moves as they elected to keep their draft picks and move ahead with their current roster.
The 49ers did make a move for defensive lineman Keion White, swapping a sixth-round pick for a seventh-round pick with the New England Patriots last week. But, they remained pat on Tuesday, indicating how they feel about this year’s team without stars Nick Bosa and Fred Warner.
There were some moves for edge rushers on deadline day, including the Philadelphia Eagles trading a third-round pick for Miami Dolphins pass-rusher Jaelen Phillips.

The San Francisco 49ers did not make an additional trade at the deadline, as many expected. Head coach Kyle Shanahan was asked whether the season-ending injury to Mykel Williams meant the team would be busy ahead of the deadline. Shanahan did not believe so:
“No, that hasn’t changed anything. I know those guys are working around the clock on just any possibilities and stuff as they do every single year. But no, this happening hasn’t changed anything.”
So, while the 49ers were busy in 2025, making four trades, a fifth to put a defense that has been lackluster since losing...

The Cincinnati Bengals received a 7th-round pick in 2026 in exchange for linebacker Logan Wilson earlier on Tuesday morning. So, the Dallas Cowboys have a new linebacker.
That is a price any team could have pulled off, suggesting the San Francisco 49ers are content with Tatum Bethune moving forward.
On Monday, the Baltimore Ravens received Dre’Mont Jones from the Titans in exchange for a fifth-round pick. Jones, 281 pounds, has 4.5 sacks on the season with 20 pressures. That’s another deal most teams could have had the ammunition to execute a trade.
Other than that, the only other trades were...

The San Francisco 49ers sit at 6-3 after a convincing win over the New York Giants. Following a thorough beating from the Houston Texans, the 49ers played bully on Sunday and ran the football right at the Giants and their defense. The 49ers’ offensive line did a much better job protecting Mac Jones, even against the vaunted Giants front four, and the defense was very solid in coverage and the back end.
But which two players bounced back on Sunday?
Offense: Dominick Puni
It was a rough go for Puni and the offensive line against Houston two Sundays ago. Puni...

The San Francisco 49ers traveled to New Jersey and dominated the New York Giants at MetLife Stadium. Unfortunately, the team couldn’t avoid the injury bug, as rookie Mykel Williams tore his ACL late in the game. It’s another tough blow for the 49ers and their defense. The 49ers dominated the Giants on Sunday by getting back to running the football. Now, the 49ers may have Brock Purdy and Ricky Pearsall return in time for their clash with the Los Angeles Rams.
Let’s look at the snap counts and grades from Sunday, according to PFF.

The San Francisco 49ers corrected their path after a loss in Houston in Week 8 with a dominating 34-24 win in New York over the Giants.
But the victory did not come without its shortcomings, as the defensive line suffered another significant injury, further hampering the position group. But other than the MetLife turf monster rearing its ugly head again, it was a good pickup performance for both sides of the ball after the failure to launch in Houston.
With the win in New York, the 49ers will be looking to win consecutive games for the first time since starting...
