San Francisco released safety Tracy Walker from the practice squad, creating an open spot to fill.
Walker became expendable with the return of safety Talanoa Hufanga, who made his season debut on Sunday after a lengthy recovery from an ACL injury suffered in November 2023.
The 49ers' safety group now includes Hufanga, Ji'Ayir Brown, George Odum, and rookie Malik Mustapha. The team also has rookie Jaylen Mahoney on the practice squad.
Additionally, San Francisco is expected to place Javon Hargrave on injured reserve after the defensive tackle suffered a partial triceps tear in Sunday's game. He is anticipated to miss the remainder of the season.
