49ers HC Kyle Shanahan expects 49ers WR De’Zhaun Stribling to miss about 10 weeks. Stribling sustained an ankle injury in the first quarter of the team’s Thursday Night Football game in Week 1. Stribling underwent ankle surgery and was placed on IR.
49ers WR De'Zhaun Stribling suffered an ankle injury in Thursday night's win over the Rams, HC Kyle Shanahan said afterward. It's good news that Stribling was carted to the locker room with what looked like a potential Achilles injury. That would have ended Stribling's season. It now sounds like we'll see him again this year, although exactly when is unclear. Shanahan said he's not sure yet of the severity of Stribling's ankle injury. We should learn more over the next few days. The rookie was notably leading WRs in snaps before exiting in the second quarter.
49ers WR De'Zhaun Stribling suffered a non-contact left leg injury in the second quarter of Thursday night's game vs. the Rams. He put no weight on the leg as he was helped off the field by a couple of trainers and went straight into the medical tent. We'll update the rookie's status when we know more.
Update: Stribling was carted to the locker room and has been ruled out.
The 49ers' revolving door of injuries continues to spin. WR De'Zhaun Stribling missed Saturday's practice with a shoulder injury and is considered day to day, according to insider Matt Maiocco. WR Mike Evans returned on Saturday after exiting Tuesday's practice with quad tightness. Evans has been on and off the field with quad trouble all month, although Maiocco said the issue is not serious. Neither Evans nor Stribling seems in danger of missing Week 1, but we'll keep an eye on both.
49ers WR De'Zhaun Stribling returned to practice on Thursday. He missed only a few days with what was evidently a minor hamstring injury. Barring a setback, Stribling's 2026 fantasy outlook is unaffected. He was off to a strong start in camp before the hamstring and has a good chance to open the season as one of San Francisco's top three WRs.
The 49ers signed WR Deebo Samuel to a one-year deal worth up to $7 million, according to multiple reports. Samuel spent his first six NFL seasons in San Francisco (2019 to 2024) and returns amid injuries to Ricky Pearsall and Christian Kirk.
Niners WR Ricky Pearsall is sitting out of Wednesday's practice because of swelling in the same knee he injured last season, according to multiple reports. The PCL injury in that knee cost him eight games, including some late season aggravations.
