    49ers sign DE, flying him 10,000 miles...

    The 49ers are making roster moves all the way from Australia. With Sam Okuayinbo sidelined by a foot injury, San Francisco has officially signed defensive end Khalid Kareem off the Atlanta Falcons’ practice squad. Kareem, who has extensive experience playing under defensive coordinator Raheem Morris, is now making the long journey to Australia to join the 49ers in Melbourne. Live from the Gold Coast, I break down how Kareem fits into the defensive line rotation, the evolution of the 49ers’ “Feverback” position, and how Raheem Morris’ aggressive blitz-heavy approach could reshape this defense. Plus, we take in the early-morning scenery from Australia, go through the 49ers’ upcoming practice schedule in Melbourne, and examine whether the Rams’ later arrival could create a significant jet-lag and acclimation disadvantage ahead of kickoff.

    BREAKING: 49ers just got BAD news, but...

    The San Francisco 49ers have hit a snag ahead of their Week 1 matchup against the Rams, as defensive end Sam Okuayinonu has been ruled out with a foot injury. With the defensive end rotation looking thin, especially with Romelo Height also managing an ankle injury, the focus shifts to new defensive coordinator Raheem Morris. In this video, I break down how Morris’s experience with both 4-3 and 3-4 schemes could provide the flexibility the 49ers need to manufacture pressure. We look at the potential for more manufactured blitzes—a staple of Morris's past defenses—and which players might step up from the practice squad or move into new roles to fill the void. Reporting live from Australia, I’m tracking how the 49ers adjust to these early-season hurdles.

    This was one of the most unpredictable days in recent San Francisco 49ers history. We break down the news surrounding Jed York's arrest, his no-contest plea to misdemeanor charges, and what the fallout could mean for the organization. We also revisit the precedent set by former 49ers owner Eddie DeBartolo Jr. and how the NFL has handled controversies involving team owners in the past. On the football side, the 49ers have added defensive end Viliami Fehoko, a second cousin of Vita Vea, while continuing to search for linebacker depth with workouts for Antonio Grier and Devin Harper. We also cover the latest on Nick Bosa's return to practice, potential roster moves, offensive line concerns and the decisions ahead as San Francisco approaches the 53-man roster deadline. 00:00 - An absurd day in 49ers history01:21 - Jed York arrest and legal fallout03:15 - 49ers sign Viliami Fehoko05:22 - Linebacker workouts and EDGE depth06:58 - A wild offseason of off-field headlines11:21 - Eddie DeBartolo Jr. precedent14:16 - Jed York's ownership history and leadership18:12 - NFL punishment and owner comparisons21:40 - Joey Bosa rumors and veteran market25:05 - Offensive line concerns and trade targets31:00 - Australia game and NFL international expansion38:00 - 49ers 53-man roster projections and moves41:11 - De'Zhaun Stribling's standout training camp #49ers #SanFrancisco49ers #JedYork #NFLNews #ViliamiFehoko #NickBosa #49ersRoster #KyleShanahan #NFL #FTTB Learn more about your ad choices.
