Cowboys' Dee Winters: Traded to Dallas
The 49ers traded Winters to the Cowboys on Friday in exchange for the 152nd pick of the 2026 NFL Draft, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
A sixth-round draft pick in 2023, Winters took Dre Greenlaw's starting spot at weakside linebacker last year, when the former posted a career-high 101 total tackles and five pass defenses (including a pick-six) across 17 regular-season games. Winters' spot on the Cowboys' first-team defense is far from guaranteed as he'll face competition from DeMarvion Overshown (concussion) and Shemar James for a starting spot at inside linebacker.

49ers' Dee Winters: Racks up 101 tackles as starter
Winters recorded 101 tackles (67 solo) and an interception in 17 regular-season games with the 49ers in 2025.
Winters took over the starting role vacated by Dre Greenlaw's departure to Denver this past offseason. The third-year linebacker played the most snaps of his career (1,010) while cracking the century mark in combined tackles for IDP managers. Fred Warner (ankle) should be ready to reclaim his spot in the middle of San Francisco's defense in 2026, and Winters' strong play has put him in prime position to start alongside Warner for the final year of his rookie contract.

49ers' Dee Winters: Good to go Saturday
Winters (ankle) is active for Saturday's divisional-round matchup versus the Seahawks, Briana Jeannel of the 49ers' official site reports.
Winters is healthy again after missing last week's wild-card win over the Eagles due to an ankle injury. He should resume his role as one of San Francisco's starting linebackers alongside Eric Kendricks and Luke Gifford during Saturday's game.

49ers' Dee Winters: Could return vs. Seattle
Winters (ankle) is listed as questionable for Saturday's NFC divisional-round game against the Seahawks, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.
Winters was limited in practice all week due to an ankle injury that prevented him from playing in the 49ers' wild-card win over the Eagles on Sunday. Luke Gifford (quadriceps) is also listed as questionable, so Garret Wallow and Curtis Robinson would be the top candidates to start alongside Eric Kendricks at linebacker if one or both of Winters and Gifford were to be sidelined.

49ers' Dee Winters: Limited at Wednesday's practice
Winters (ankle) was a limited participant at practice Wednesday, Cam Inman of The San Jose Mercury News reports.
Winters was sidelined for the 49ers' wild card win at Philadelphia, and now his status for the divisional round against the Seahawks is in doubt. He'll probably have to participate fully at practice Friday to avoid carrying an injury designation when San Francisco releases its final practice report of the week.

49ers' Dee Winters: Estimated as limited Tuesday
Winters (ankle) was a limited participant in Tuesday's walkthrough practice, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.
Winters was unable to play through an ankle injury against the Eagles during Sunday's NFC wild-card game. The 49ers held a walkthrough practice Tuesday, but Winters' ability to log a limited session is a sign that he is progressing in his recovery. A full practice over the next two days would put the third-year linebacker on track to play in Saturday's divisional-round bout against the Seahawks.

49ers' Dee Winters: Won't play versus Philly
Winters (ankle) is inactive for Sunday's wild-card contest versus the Eagles.
Winters' status was up in the air after he sustained an ankle injury during the loss to Seattle in the regular-season finale. The 25-year-old will miss Sunday's contest along with San Francisco's other starting outside linebacker Luke Gifford (quadriceps), who was also injured during Week 18. In their absence, Curtis Robinson and Garret Wallow should start alongside middle linebacker Eric Kendricks.

49ers' Dee Winters: Questionable to face Philly
Winters (ankle) is listed as questionable for Sunday's wild-card road game against the Eagles, Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
Winters and Luke Gifford (quadriceps) are both questionable, leaving the status of San Francisco's linebacker corps in flux. Both starting outside linebackers were injured in Week 18 against the Seahawks, and Winters was subsequently unable to practice in any capacity throughout the week. Curtis Robinson and Garret Wallow would be the next men up at the position flanking Eric Kendricks.

49ers' Dee Winters: Not practicing Wednesday
Winters (ankle) did not practice in Wednesday's session, Matt Barrows of The Athletic reports.
Winters sustained an ankle injury in last Saturday's loss to the Seahawks, and the weakside linebacker's playoff status is now in jeopardy. The 25-year-old will have two more opportunities to increase his practice participation in an attempt to dodge any injury designation ahead of Sunday's playoff game against the Eagles. If Winters cannot suit up, the 49ers' linebacker corps, which typically consists of eight players, will be down to just four at most. Linebacker is the most likely position to be elevated from the practice squad for the 49ers on Saturday.
