Huff (hamstring) does not carry an injury designation into Sunday's game against the Rams, Matt Barrows of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Huff missed the 49ers' last two games due to a hamstring strain, but he has been cleared to make his return against Los Angeles after logging a full practice Friday. His return is timely for the 49ers, given that fellow defensive ends Mykel Williams (knee - ACL), Yetur Gross-Matos (knee) and Nick Bosa (knee - ACL) are all on injured reserve. Huff has accumulated 19 tackles (11 solo), including 4.0 sacks, one pass defense and two forced fumbles across seven regular-season games.

Huff (hamstring) was a limited participant in practice for the second day in a row Thursday, Matt Barrows of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

The pass rusher has missed the last two two games due to a hamstring strain, so even his limited participation in practice can be considered a step in the right direction. With Mykel Williams (ACL), Yetur Gross-Matos (knee), Nick Bosa (knee - ACL) and Tarron Jackson (undisclosed) all on injured reserve, the 49ers could really use Huff on Sunday against the Rams.

Huff (hamstring) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice, Cam Inman of The San Jose Mercury News reports.

EDGE Analysis

Huff has missed the 49ers' last two games due to a hamstring strain, but his return to practice Wednesday is a sign that the veteran pass rusher is progressing in his recovery. He could return against the Colts on Sunday, and his availability is key given that Mykel Williams suffered a season-ending torn ACL during the 49ers' Week 9 win over the Giants, further depleting San Francisco's defensive end depth that also has Yetur Gross-Matos (knee), Nick Bosa (knee - ACL) and Tarron Jackson (undisclosed) all on injured reserve.

Huff (hamstring) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Giants, Jennifer Lee Chan of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

EDGE Analysis

Huff will miss a second consecutive game due to a hamstring strain that he sustained against the Falcons in Week 7. He hasn't been able to practice since the injury, so he'll look to return in at least a limited capacity ahead of the 49ers' Week 10 NFC West clash against the Rams on Sunday, Nov. 9. Both Huff and Yetur Gross-Matos (knee/hamstring) have been ruled out for Week 9 and Sam Okuayinonu (ankle) is listed as questionable, so the 49ers may have to lean more heavily on Mykel Williams, Robert Beal and recent acquisition Keion White for snaps at defensive end.

Huff (hamstring) did not participate at practice Wednesday, Eric Branch of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

EDGE Analysis

Huff sat out Sunday's game at Houston due to a hamstring injury he suffered in Week 7 versus the Falcons, and now his availability for Week 9 is in question. If he ends up unable to return to practice Thursday or Friday, he'll likely miss Sunday's game against the Giants.

Huff (hamstring) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Texans, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Huff was expected to miss time due to a hamstring strain that he picked up during the 49ers' Week 7 win over the Falcons, so his absence for Week 8 comes as no surprise. The 49ers will be without Huff and Yetur Gross-Matos (knee/hamstring) for Sunday's road game, which means Sam Okuayinonu, Mykel Williams and Robert Beal are in line to see more snaps at defensive end. Huff will look to return to practice ahead of the 49ers' Week 9 contest against the Giants on Sunday, Nov. 2.

Huff is expected to miss a couple weeks due to a hamstring injury, Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

EDGE Analysis

Huff presumably picked up the injury during Sunday night's win over the Falcons, though the team didn't announce an injury during the contest. With Nick Bosa (knee) done for the season, Huff has been San Francisco's most active edge rusher in recent weeks, as he's produced 19 tackles (11 solo), including a team-high 4.0 sacks, and a pair of forced fumbles. The Niners will really be dipping into their depth at the position while Huff is sidelined.

Huff was traded from the Eagles to the 49ers on Monday in exchange for a conditional fifth-round pick in 2026, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

EDGE Analysis

This deal has been in the works for several days, but it could not be finalized until the new league year, which began June 1. Huff has primarily seen the field as a rotational pass rusher with both the Jets and Eagles, and he should fill a similar role with the 49ers while pairing with Dee Winters and Nick Martin. A return to his career-best mark of 10.0 sacks looks unlikely, but he should have more expanded opportunity than in 2024 as a member of the Eagles.

Philadelphia is working to finalize a trade that will send Huff to San Francisco in exchange for a mid-round future draft pick, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

EDGE Analysis

Huff has already agreed to rework his contract to help facilitate a deal, leaving the Eagles to take on $9.05 million and the 49ers to pay $7.95 million this season, per Schefter, though an official trade can't be finalized until after June 1. Across 12 regular-season games with Philadelphia in 2024, Huff made just 13 tackles (five solo), including 2.5 sacks, plus one forced fumble. Despite being the team's highest-paid signing of last offseason's free agency cycle via a three-year, $51.1 million contract, Huff was a healthy scratch for the team's win over Kansas City in Super Bowl LIX. The best season of Huff's career by a notable margin, his 10.0-sack 2023 campaign, came under San Francisco defensive coordinator Robert Saleh when he was head coach of the Jets, so his trade destination represents an ideal opportunity to bounce back.

Huff finished the 2024 season with 13 total tackles (five solo), including 2.5 sacks, while also forcing a fumble over 12 regular-season games.

EDGE Analysis

Huff joined the Eagles ahead of the 2024 season, signing a three-year, $51.1 million deal with the team. The linebacker never had more than three tackles in a game during the regular season while also missing five contests with a wrist injury. Huff will look to have a greater impact on the team in 2025.
