San Francisco 49ers roster depth adjustments
Overview
The San Francisco 49ers have signed veteran wide receiver Brandin Cooks to their practice squad to address a significant injury crisis in their receiving corps. Cooks, a 12-year NFL veteran entering his 13th season, is currently just 189 yards shy of reaching 10,000 career receiving yards.
The move follows several injuries to key players, including Ricky Pearsall, who is out for the season, and rookie De’Zhaun Stribling, who is expected to miss approximately two months. Additionally, Demarcus Robinson is dealing with a high ankle injury, and Mike Evans is managing a hip issue. Cooks, a former first-round pick out of Oregon State, previously played for teams including the New Orleans Saints, New England Patriots, Los Angeles Rams, Houston Texans, Dallas Cowboys, and Buffalo Bills.
Following his time on the practice squad, the 49ers have promoted Cooks to the active roster. To facilitate this promotion, the team released wide receiver KhaDarel Hodge with an injury settlement and signed wide receiver Malik Turner to the practice squad. Furthermore, the team has designated defensive end Mykel Williams to return from the physically unable to perform (PUP) list.
