Pinnock (heel) was limited to individual drills during Tuesday's training camp practice, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Pinnock sat out the 49ers' second preseason game Saturday due to a lingering heel injury, and it's still bothering him ahead of Saturday's preseason contest versus the Chargers. As long as he remains sidelined during team drills, rookie fifth-rounder Marques Sigle figures to see increased activity.

Pinnock (heel) will not play against Las Vegas on Saturday, Cam Inman of The San Jose Mercury News reports.
EDGE Analysis
Pinnock was limited in practice this past week while working through a heel injury, and he'll be in street clothes Saturday to avoid aggravating the issue. Siran Neal and Derrick Canteen should see a heavy dose of snaps at safety due to the absences of Pinnock and Malik Mustapha (knee).

Head coach Kyle Shanahan told reporters Thursday that Pinnock is working through a heel injury, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Pinnock played 11 defensive snaps during the 49ers' preseason opener against the Broncos this past Saturday and finished with one solo tackle. He's been limited to individual drills over the past week, and the 49ers may play things safe by holding the fifth-year safety out of Saturday's exhibition contest against the Raiders. Siran Neal, Derrick Canteen and Jaylen Mahoney are poised to see a significant number of defensive snaps at safety due to injuries to Pinnock and several other players in San Francisco's secondary.

Pinnock is slated to sign a one-year contract with the 49ers, Jordan Schultz of Fox Sports reports.
EDGE Analysis
Pinnock started in all 16 regular-season games he played in 2024 and finished with 85 tackles (50 solo), including a career-high 3.0 sacks, and one pass defense. The 2021 fifth-round pick will use offseason programs and training camp to compete against Malik Mustapha (knee) and Ji'Ayir Brown for a starting spot at safety.

Pinnock tallied 85 tackles (50 solo), including 3.0 sacks, along with one defensed pass over 16 games during the 2024 regular season.
EDGE Analysis
For the second straight season, Pinnock started in all 16 games in which he played and logged exactly 85 tackles. The fourth-year safety recorded 3.0 sacks over the season's first three weeks to establish a career-high mark in that category, but he didn't record another sack the rest of the campaign. Pinnock also had no interceptions this season after picking off two passes -- and returning one for a pick-six -- last year. He'll be a free agent upon the conclusion of the season and could be an attractive option for teams looking for help at the safety position after two straight years of consistent, though mostly quiet, production.

Pinnock notched 10 tackles (seven solo) Sunday in a 45-33 Week 17 win over the Colts.
EDGE Analysis
Pinnock ranked second on New York in tackles behind Ty Summers (11). The fourth-year safety's 10 stops were a season-high mark. Pinnock has been productive with 18 tackles over the past two weeks.

Pinnock posted eight tackles (five solo), including one for loss, in a 34-7 defeat against the Falcons in Week 16.
EDGE Analysis
Pinnock finished second on the Giants in stops behind Darius Muasau (11). Pinnock's eight tackles were the second-most he's recorded in a game this season -- he had nine Week 2 against Washington. Though the fourth-year safety hasn't reached double-digit tackles in any contest on the campaign, he's established a reliable floor with at least five stops in each of his past eight games.

Pinnock (abdomen) was left off the Giants' injury report Wednesday, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Pinnock missed the Giants' Week 10 loss to the Panthers due to an abdomen injury, but his omission from Wednesday's injury report suggests that the team's Week 11 bye provided enough time to recover from the issue. Now that Pinnock is back at full health, he's expected to start alongside Tyler Nubin (back) as part of the Giants' top safety duo.

Pinnock (abdomen) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Panthers in Munich, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Pinnock didn't appear on the Giants' initial Week 10 injury report before he was listed with an abdominal injury after being a limited participant at Thursday's practice. He then sat out Friday's practice entirely and was listed as questionable heading into the weekend before being made inactive for the first time this season. With Pinnock unavailable in Germany, the Giants will turn to Dane Belton to start at safety alongside Tyler Nubin, according to Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com reports.

Pinnock (abdomen) is questionable for Sunday's game versus Carolina, Pat Leonard of the New York Daily News reports.
EDGE Analysis
Pinnock was added to the Giants' injury report Thursday, and he was unable to practice Friday. Anthony Johnson and Dane Belton would be next in line for safety snaps alongside Tyler Nubin if Pinnock is unable to play in Germany.
