Gipson has been suspended the first six games of the 2024 regular season for violating the NFL's performance enhancing substances policy, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports. Gipson, who remains a free agent, will likely have a more difficult time finding interest from teams around the league now that he'll be unavailable for the first six games of the season. The veteran safety spent the prior two years in San Francisco, where he started 16 regular-season contests in 2023. Now, Gipson might ultimately need to wait until his suspension has run its course before finding a new home.

Gipson (quad) was a full participant at practice Tuesday, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports. Gipson was sidelined for San Francisco's regular-season finale due to a quadriceps injury, but it now appears he will suit up in the divisional round. He projects to start at safety Saturday.

Gipson (quad) is out for Sunday's game against the Rams, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports. Gipson had played in all 16 games leading up to this one. As a key defensive starter for a Niners squad that has already clinched the No. 1 seed and a first-round playoff bye, Gipson was already unlikely to play much, if at all, Sunday. He'll have an extra week to get ready for the divisional round.

Gipson reverted to the 49ers' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log. Gipson drew the start at free safety in San Francisco's season opener after being elevated from the team's practice squad Saturday. The veteran recorded three tackles while playing all but one of the 49ers' defensive snaps against the Bears. Gipson is now eligible for two more practice squad elevations, which should help provide the team additional roster flexibility while Jimmie Ward (hamstring) sits out on IR until Week 5.

The 49ers elevated Gipson to the active roster Saturday, David Lombardi of The Athletic reports. The 10-year pro joined the 49ers on Aug. 22, and while he didn't survive roster cuts Aug. 30, he landed on the team's practice squad two days later. With Jimmie Ward (hamstring) on IR to start the season, Saturday's move may be a common one over the first four weeks to ensure suitable depth at safety for San Francisco.
