Luter (pelvis) has been participating in training camp, Grant Cohn of Sports Illustrated reports.
EDGE Analysis
Luter's 2024 campaign ended in November, when he was placed on injured reserve. The 25-year-old has battled injuries in his first two seasons in the NFL, only appearing in 10 total games over that span. He is looking to prove himself this season and find a role in the cornerback room behind established starters Deommodore Lenoir and Renardo Green.

Luter (pelvis) was placed on the 49ers' injured reserve Saturday, Matt Barrows of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Luter appears to have injured his pelvis during practice this week, as he popped up on Friday's injury report as a DNP. It's serious enough to warrant a multi-game absence, and since he'll be forced to miss at least the next four regular-season games, the earliest Luter can return would be Week 15 against the Rams on Thursday, Dec. 12. Luter has played in just three games and has mostly played on special teams.

Luter (pelvis) did not appear on the 49ers' injury report Wednesday, Cam Inman of The San Jose Mercury News reports.
EDGE Analysis
Luter was forced to miss the team's 28-18 loss to Kansas City in Week 7 due to a pelvis injury, but he now appears to be a full go ahead of Week 8 against Dallas. The cornerback has appeared in one game this season, recording two tackles and a forced fumble in Week 6 versus Seattle.

Luter (hamstring) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice.
EDGE Analysis
Luter was inactive for Week 14 against the Seahawks after being unable to log a practice session leading up to the contest. His full participation Wednesday is a good sign he will make his return for Sunday's NFC West clash against the Cardinals.

Luter (hamstring) is inactive for Sunday's contest against the Seahawks.
EDGE Analysis
Luter didn't practice at all this week and entered Sunday deemed doubtful, so his inability to play was expected. The 23-year-old's absence probably won't impact the 49ers' defensive gameplan, as all 37 of Luter's snaps have come on special teams this season.

Luter (hamstring) is considered doubtful to play Sunday versus the Seahawks, Matt Barrows of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Luter is dealing with a hamstring injury, and his chances to play in Week 14 appear rather slim. Considering he's yet to play a defensive snap this year, his possible absence doesn't carry much of a fantasy impact.

Coach Kyle Shanahan said Monday that Luter was expected to miss a week or so due to a hamstring injury, Cam Inman of The San Jose Mercury News reports.
EDGE Analysis
His coach's comments suggest that Luter will likely be sidelined for Week 14 versus the Seahawks at the least. He has played exclusively on special teams through three games this season, so San Francisco will have to try to replace his production in that phase.

Luter (knee) is active ahead of Sunday's game against the Buccaneers.
EDGE Analysis
The rookie out of South Alabama had been on San Francisco's PUP list since late August, but he was activated to the team's active roster yesterday and is now in line to play in Sunday's contest. Luter is expected to serve as a rotational cornerback on the 49ers' defense now that he's ready to return to the field.

Luter (knee) was activated from the reserve/PUP list Saturday.
EDGE Analysis
Luter is back on the active roster after beginning his NFL career on the PUP list. The 2023 fifth-round draft pick suffered a hyperextension and bone bruise in his knee during training camp. Luter could make his NFL debut Sunday against the Buccaneers, but he remains listed a questionable for that contest.
