Buckner’s Homecoming Bolsters Defensive Front

Buckner returned to Levi’s Stadium after his acquisition from Indianapolis for a 2027 fourth-round pick, and Morris expects him mainly at three-technique alongside Bosa. Halton is out for the season; Lenoir and Green remain day-to-day, while West is expected back at practice. The team remains open to Jordan Elliott’s return, but he only reportedly worked out for Chicago and San Francisco has not signed him; the article also flags a firearm-related practice incident. San Francisco’s reported Mack talks produced no deal.
