How 49ers’ rising star injury could force John Lynch’s hand at trade deadline
The San Francisco 49ers may reconsider their trade deadline plans after defensive tackle Gracen Halton suffered a season-ending ankle fracture in a win over the Raiders. The injury could prompt general manager John Lynch to seek more defensive line depth, even though the club had recently brought back DeForest Buckner.
A receiver remains the likeliest trade target, with Mike Evans, Deebo Samuel and Christian Kirk all unavailable for the Raiders game; Evans could miss weeks with Achilles tendinitis. The 49ers are 7-1 and lead the NFC West, but injuries have disrupted their plans as they approach the 10 November deadline.
In short
- Gracen Halton is out for the season with an ankle fracture.
- The 49ers may pursue defensive line help before the deadline.
- A wide receiver remains their most likely trade target.
