49ers Promote Curtis Robinson, Waive Robert Beal Jr. Ahead of Week 2 at Saints

With Brock Purdy out, San Francisco turned to short‑term elevations to cover depth for Sunday in New Orleans.

Overview

  • The team announced the moves Saturday, finalizing game-day depth before facing the Saints.
  • Linebacker Curtis Robinson was signed to the 53-man roster after returning from a 2024 ACL tear and logging special-teams snaps in Week 1.
  • Defensive end Robert Beal Jr., a 2023 fifth-round pick, was waived and will be subject to claims due to his service time.
  • Quarterback Adrian Martinez was elevated from the practice squad to serve as the No. 2 behind Mac Jones with Brock Purdy ruled out with a toe injury.
  • Tight end Brayden Willis was elevated for depth, and both he and Martinez are standard elevations set to revert to the practice squad after the game.
