49ers Acquire Keion White, Sign Clelin Ferrell as Trade Push Continues

ESPN reports San Francisco remains aggressive in pursuing pass-rush help before the Nov. 4 deadline.

Overview

  • San Francisco traded a 2026 sixth-round pick to New England for DE Keion White and a 2026 seventh-rounder, bolstering a thinned edge rotation.
  • The 49ers added veteran DE Clelin Ferrell to the practice squad, and Kyle Shanahan highlighted White’s ability to play end and rush inside.
  • Injuries to Nick Bosa and multiple edge rushers have contributed to one of the league’s lowest sack totals, prompting immediate depth moves.
  • ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler and Dan Graziano say the team remains active in talks for more help, with Bengals DE Trey Hendrickson reported as unavailable.
  • Shanahan said he would be very surprised if WR Jauan Jennings is moved this season, and QB Brock Purdy remained limited in practice as he works back from a toe injury.
