Overview
- San Francisco hosted Kendal Daniels for a pre-draft evaluation visit, according to KPRC2 reporter Aaron Wilson.
- Daniels moved from safety to linebacker after three seasons at Oklahoma State and played the Sooners’ Cheetah hybrid role in 2025.
- The 242-pound defender recorded 53 tackles, nine tackles for loss, three pass breakups and one fumble recovery last season at Oklahoma.
- Draft analysts project him for Day 3, with some grades in the sixth round, which would likely mean a fourth-round flier or a trade back for the 49ers.
- Scouts view his range and size as a potential niche fit in Morris’ defense, though he is seen as a developmental player.
