The 49ers placed Warner (ankle) on injured reserve Saturday.

EDGE Analysis

Warner underwent surgery to address the right dislocated and fractured ankle that he sustained during the 49ers' Week 6 loss to the Buccaneers. He'll be sidelined for the rest of the season, so the veteran linebacker will focus on his rehab and recovery while working toward being fully healthy for the start of the 2026 campaign. Tatum Bethune is in line to take over starting duties at linebacker in Warner's absence.

49ers coach Kyle Shanahan said Tuesday that Warner (ankle) has undergone successful surgery to address the right dislocated and fractured ankle he suffered Week 6, Matt Barrows of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Shanahan declined to estimate a timetable for Warner's return or to say whether he could have a chance to return if the 49ers earn a playoff berth. Warner's injury is generally considered season-ending, especially if it requires a follow-up procedure, with Dr. Eric Giza, chief of orthopedic foot and ankle surgery at UC Davis, noting that "unless the 49ers go to the Super Bowl, [Warner] is probably out for the season." Tatum Bethune impressed in Warner's stead in Week 6 and figures to draw a start versus Atlanta on Sunday, but San Francisco's defense now faces the task of replacing its two top playmakers since Nick Bosa (knee) is also out for the year.

Warner (ankle) will undergo season-ending surgery Tuesday, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Coach Kyle Shanahan said the hope is Warner will be ready in time for training camp next summer after he suffered a dislocated and fractured ankle in Sunday's loss to the Bucs. Tatum Bethune projects to full Warner's hole in the defense moving forward this season, but the 49ers could look for outside reinforcements on defense after losing both Warner and Nick Bosa (knee) to season-ending injuries.

Head coach Kyle Shanahan told reporters after Sunday's 30-19 loss to the Buccaneers that Warner will undergo season-ending surgery on his right ankle, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Warner was carted off the field during the first quarter of Sunday's game. Further tests revealed that the veteran linebacker dislocated and broke his right ankle, and he will undergo surgery to repair the injuries and be sidelined for the rest of the 2025 campaign. Warner logged one tackle prior to his exit, and the 2018 third-rounder's season will end with him accumulating 51 tackles (28 solo), three pass defenses, two forced fumbles and one fumble recovery over six games. The 49ers will turn to Tatum Bethune and Curtis Robinson to fill in the gap at linebacker left by Warner. Rookie third-rounder Nick Martin has been a healthy scratch for each of the first six games of the regular season, but he could be active and make his NFL debut in San Francisco's Week 7 clash against Atlanta on Sunday, Oct. 19.

EDGE Analysis

Warner suffered the injury during the first quarter and was quickly ruled out after he was carted to the locker room. He'll undergo further tests and meet with doctors to determine how much time he'll miss, but the loss of Warner is a big blow to a 49ers defense that is already without Nick Bosa (knee) for the rest of the season. Tatum Bethune and Curtis Robinson will continue to see more snaps at linebacker in Warner's absence.

Warner (ankle) will miss the remainder of San Francisco's matchup versus the Buccaneers on Sunday, Jennifer Lee Chan of NBC Sports reports.

EDGE Analysis

Warner was carted off the field in the first quarter and was quickly ruled out for the remainder of the game. With there's currently no timetable for the 28-year-old's return, he could be forced to miss an extended period of time. In Warner's absence, Tatum Bethune and Curtis Robinson could be in line for increased playing time.

Warner logged 12 tackles (seven solo) during the 49ers' 26-23 overtime win over the Rams on Thursday.

EDGE Analysis

Warner played every single defensive snap for a fourth consecutive game, and he finished Thursday's contest with the second most tackles on the 49ers behind rookie fifth-round safety Marques Sigle (13). Thursday marked the third time Warner has logged double-digit tackles, and the veteran linebacker has recorded at least eight tackles in each of the first five games of the regular season. He's up to 50 tackles (28 solo), three pass defenses, two forced fumbles and one fumble recovery to open the 2025 campaign.

Warner recorded eight tackles (six solo) with a forced fumble in Sunday's 26-21 loss to the Jaguars.

EDGE Analysis

Warner logged 100 percent of defensive snaps for the third straight game and has at least eight tackles in every contest. He also forced his second fumble of the year, helping to stall a Jacksonville drive late in the third quarter.

Warner tallied 11 total tackles (five solo) and two passes defended during Sunday's 16-15 win over the Cardinals.

EDGE Analysis

Warner has led the 49ers' defense in total tackles in each of the team's first three games this year, bringing his season total to 30 stops. The veteran continues to prove why he's the NFL's highest-paid inside linebacker, as he's also accumulated three passes defended and a forced fumble this season, showcasing his all-around impact. Expect Warner to remain the 49ers' defensive signal-caller in Week 4, when the Jaguars travel to San Francisco.

Warner recorded 11 total tackles (seven solo), one pass defended, one forced fumble and one fumble recovery in Sunday's 26-21 win over the Saints.

EDGE Analysis

Warner paced San Francisco's defense in total tackles for the second consecutive time in Sunday's win, opening his 2025 campaign with 19 total tackles through two games. The NFL's highest-paid inside linebacker also made an incredible play on Alvin Kamara in the third quarter in which he forced and recovered a fumble. As the 49ers prepare to face the Cardinals in Week 3, Warner is projected to remain one of the NFL's premier defensive playmakers.
