  • 49ers' CJ West: Earns first career sack

    West appeared in 14 games for the 49ers in 2025, finishing the regular season with 21 tackles (12 solo) and one sack.

    The fourth-round draft pick was eased into the defensive line rotation before watching his snap count rise in the second half of the schedule. West nabbed his first career sack in Week 16 of the regular season and then went on to record another in the 49ers' divisional round loss to the Seahawks. The 23-year-old will enter his second pro season with an opportunity to compete for a starting defensive tackle position.

  • 49ers' CJ West: Good to go Week 5

    West (thumb) is active for Thursday's game against the Rams, Briana Jeannel of the 49ers' official site reports.

    West underwent surgery to repair a thumb injury that he sustained during the 49ers' Week 3 win over the Cardinals. He was unable to play against the Jaguars on Sunday, but the rookie fourth-rounder has been cleared to play in Thursday's road tilt. West has two tackles (one solo) through the first three regular-season games of his NFL career.

  • 49ers' CJ West: Unavailable for Week 4

    West (thumb) has been ruled out for Sunday's contest against Jacksonville.

    West suffered a broken thumb in Week 3 against the Cardinals, and he's expected to require surgery to address it. In his absence, Alfred Collins and Jordan Jefferson stand to see an increase in workload at defensive tackle behind starters Kalia Davis and Jordan Elliott versus the Jaguars.

  • 49ers' CJ West: Requires surgery on thumb

    Head coach Kyle Shanahan relayed Monday that West will need to undergo surgery to repair a broken thumb, Eric Branch of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

    Despite the necessity of a procedure, Shanahan noted that West could play through the injury with a cast on his broken thumb, which means he has not been ruled out for the 49ers' Week 4 clash against the Jaguars this Sunday, per Branch. West logged two tackles (one solo) in Sunday's 16-15 win over the Cardinals.

  • 49ers' CJ West: Logs full practice Wednesday

    West (knee) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice, Cam Inman of The San Jose Mercury News reports.

    The rookie fourth-rounder hyper-extended his knee in mid-August, which prevented him from playing in the 49ers' final two preseason games. West was able to open the week with a full practice, which puts him on track to play in Sunday's regular-season opener against the Seahawks. He's expected to serve in a rotational role at defensive tackle with Alfred Collins, Kalia Davis and Jordan Elliott.

  • 49ers' CJ West: Won't play Saturday

    West (knee) has been ruled out for Saturday's preseason game against the Raiders, Eric Branch of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

    West hyperextended his knee during practice this past week, and San Francisco will take the conservative route by having the rookie fourth-rounder observe Saturday's game in street clothes. The injury isn't considered a long-term issue, so he could be available for the 49ers' preseason finale against the Chargers on Saturday, Aug. 23.

  • 49ers' CJ West: Hyperextends knee

    West has a hyperextended knee, David Lombardi of the San Francisco Standard reports.

    West's likely looking at a short-term injury, per Lombardi, though a more specific recovery timeline hasn't been established for the rookie fourth-round pick. The 49ers begin regular-season play Sept. 7 against the Seahawks. San Francisco's next preseason game is Saturday against the Raiders.
