In a report by ESPN's Nick Wagoner, 49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan reported that the two-time first-team All-Pro tight end would be returning to practice this upcoming week as the team prepares for a Sunday night matchup with the Atlanta Falcons.

Not long after nearly losing a fumble on a sack, Mac Jones finally unravels for the 49ers, tossing a deep pick to Jamel Dean that just might seal a home victory for Tampa Bay, which is getting heroic stuff from its own gunslinger in Baker Mayfield:

The 49ers were without Nick Bosa, Brandon Aiyuk, Brock Purdy, Ricky Pearsall and Kittle on Sunday against the Bucs, and they ended up losing star linebacker Fred Warner to a season-ending ankle injury during that game.

The San Francisco 49ers, Pittsburgh Steelers, New England Patriots and Tampa Bay Buccaneers are all considered possible trade partners for a five-time Pro Bowler who is currently on a team going nowhere in 2025.

San Francisco 49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan on Monday said "too many assumptions" shouldn't be made about his heated exchange with receiver Jauan Jennings.

It’s a feat that Moody never accomplished in his two years, plus one awful game, with San Francisco after being drafted in the third round in 2023. He missed the only buzzer-beating chance he got with the Niners in a road game at Cleveland in 2023 and was cut after missing two field goals in Week 1 this season.
