49ers' Romello Height: Misses Sunday practice
Height (undisclosed) did not participate in Sunday's practice, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.
Height likely picked up an injury during Saturday's practice session. The third-round rookie tallied one tackle in Thursday's preseason win over the Chargers and is set to be a reserve piece on the edge throughout the 2026 season.

49ers' Romello Height: Logs tackle in preseason win
Height (elbow) recorded one tackle for a loss in Thursday's 41-17 preseason win over the Chargers.
Height did not play in the 49ers' preseason opener against the Titans due to an elbow issue, but the rookie third-rounder was cleared to play in Thursday's exhibition game, when he logged 13 snaps on defense. Height figures to be a contributor on special teams this season, though he could also see rotational reps as a pass rusher depending on the health of Mykel Williams (knee), Nick Bosa (knee) and Keion White (groin).

49ers' Romello Height: Absent with elbow issue
Height (elbow) did not participate in Saturday's practice session, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.
The third-round rookie out of Texas Tech has not yet had a chance to prove himself in training camp. Height was carted off the field on Monday due to cramps and has now sustained an elbow issue. If the outside linebacker cannot stay on the field, it will be hard for him to pass Sam Okuayinonu on the depth chart before the start of the regular season.

49ers' Romello Height: Dealing with cramps
Height was carted off the field at Monday's practice due to cramps, rather than any sort of severe injury, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.
Height has avoided any sort of worst-case scenario after being carted off the practice field Monday, and it appears that he'll be back in action for on-field drills without much, if any, delay. Both Nick Bosa (ACL) and Mykel Williams (ACL) opened training camp on the active/PUP list, giving Height a clear path to carving out a role in San Francisco's pass-rush room early in his career.

49ers' Romello Height: Carted off practice field
Height (lower body) was carted off the field at Monday's practice, Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
Height suffered an injury during Monday's training camp practice, and trainers appeared to be attending to both his arms and his right leg. The rookie third-round pick is competing to carve out a role at outside linebacker in Year 1 with the 49ers.

49ers' Romello Height: Drafted by San Francisco
The 49ers selected Height in the third round of the 2026 NFL Draft, 70th overall.
Height (6-foot-3, 239 pounds) largely rushed from the outside linebacker position during his breakout campaign with Texas Tech in 2025, when he totaled 38 tackles, including 10.0 sacks and 11.5 tackles for loss across 14 games. He lacks the prototypical size to succeed as an edge rusher at the NFL level, which could limit his upside to that of a rotational player, though having landed in San Francisco, Height is in solid position to thrive as a situational pass rusher behind Nick Bosa (ACL) and 2025 first-round pick Mykel Williams (ACL).
