  • 49ers' Jaden Dugger: Set for Sunday

    Dugger (knee) does not have any injury designation ahead of Sunday's game against the Falcons.

    Dugger started Week 7 prep with consecutive limited practices before upgrading to a full participant in Friday's session. The strongside linebacker is all set to suit up for Sunday's game against the Falcons opposite Dre Greenlaw.

  • 49ers' Jaden Dugger: Limited participant Wednesday

    Dugger (knee) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice, Harrison Rich of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

    Dugger appears to have picked up a knee injury in the 49ers' Week 6 win over the Commanders. The strongside linebacker's ability to practice in the first Week 7 prep session is a strong sign that he should be able to suit up for Sunday's contest against the Falcons. Dugger will likely need to upgrade to full participation by Friday's session to avoid any injury designation ahead of Sunday's game.

  • 49ers' Jaden Dugger: Team-leading 11 stops in Week 6 win

    Dugger tallied 11 tackles (eight solo) during the 49ers' 23-17 win over the Commanders on Monday.

    Dugger was listed as a starter for the third time this season, and the rookie fifth-rounder led the 49ers in tackles while playing 64 of 67 defensive snaps (95.5 percent). He looks to be the favored option as the team's third starting linebacker alongside veterans Fred Warner and Dre Greenlaw. San Francisco will hit the road for Week 7 against Atlanta on Oct. 25.

  • 49ers' Jaden Dugger: Selected by San Francisco

    The 49ers selected Dugger in the fifth round of the 2026 NFL Draft, 154th overall.

    Dugger might need some seasoning after playing two years at Georgetown and two years at Louisiana, with only the 2025 season as starter in his two years with the Ragin' Cajuns. With that said, Dugger is the exact right type of developmental prospect to target in the late rounds, because at 6-foot-5, 242 pounds Dugger has good speed (4.61-second pro day 40) and remarkable reach (35-inch arms) for further development, potentially at either inside or outside linebacker.
