49ers Downgrade Two Defensive Players to Out for Sunday's Game Against Cowboys; Rookie Halton Hopes to Return for Next Spring's Training Camp After Surgery
The San Francisco 49ers on Nov. 14 downgraded cornerback Nate Hobbs and defensive lineman C.J. West to out, and the two will miss the Week 10 game against the Dallas Cowboys on Nov. 15. Hobbs, 27, joined the 49ers in the offseason and has spent the entire season on injured reserve with a groin injury; West, 24, was selected in the fourth round of the 2025 draft, 113th overall, and attended Kent State University and Indiana University. The good news is that three starting cornerbacks — Deommodore Lenoir, Renardo Green and Upton Stout — although listed as questionable, are all expected to play, and the team did not elevate any defensive backs from the practice squad on Nov. 14. At wide receiver, Mike Evans was already listed as out on Nov. 13 and is still undergoing physical therapy for Achilles tendinitis. Rookie defensive tackle Gracen Halton suffered a broken leg and dislocated ankle against the Raiders last weekend and underwent surgery on Nov. 14; according to ESPN reporter Adam Schefter, he is expected to be ready for the team's 2027 spring training camp. Halton has played in eight games this season, starting six, with 15 tackles, two sacks, and a forced fumble returned for a touchdown, and he was placed on injured reserve on Nov. 10.
