News

  • Staying in San Fran another year

    The 49ers are signing Givens to a one-year contract, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

    Analysis: Givens is now in line to play his sixth straight season in San Francisco after playing all 17 regular-season games in 2023. He will likely fill a rotational role on the interior of the defensive line once again in 2024.

  • Staying put in San Fran

    The 49ers signed Givens to a one-year contract extension Monday.

    Analysis: Givens is now set for his fifth consecutive campaign with the 49ers after he reached a new deal with the team Monday. The 285-pounder appeared in 16 games this past season as a rotational defensive lineman and posted career highs in both tackles (24) and sacks (two).

  • Returns in full Tuesday

    Givens (knee) was listed as a full participant on the 49ers' injury report Tuesday.

    Analysis: Givens has not played since sustaining a sprained MCL during the Week 14 win over Tampa Bay. The 25-year-old did return to practice in a limited fashion last Thursday, and he should now be set to reprise his rotational role at defensive tackle. Givens recorded a career-high 20 tackles, two sacks and a pass defended over 13 games this regular season, and he'll provide valuable depth alongside Javon Kinlaw (knee) and Arik Armstead (foot/ankle), both of whom were limited during practice Tuesday.

  • Expected back for playoffs

    Givens (knee) is expected to return for Saturday's wild-card round game against the Seahawks, Josh Dubow of The Associated Press reports.

    Analysis: Givens hasn't played since spraining his MCL on Dec. 11, but the defensive tackle is expected to make his return for the 49ers' postseason opener. Givens totaled 20 tackles (11 solo) and two sacks across 13 appearances (11 starts) in the regular season.

  • Out Week 18

    Givens (knee) will not play in the 49ers' regular-season finale against the Cardinals, Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

    Analysis: Givens has been sidelined since Dec. 11 due to an MCL sprain. His status for the playoffis is unknown at this time, but he will have at least another week of recovery time.

  • Will miss time

    Givens suffered an MCL sprain in Sunday's win over the Buccaneers and will be out for a few weeks, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Givens' diagnosis is what the team was hoping for despite it still likely leading to a multi-week absence. How long the 25-year-old could be out of action is still unknown, but it appears he's likely questionable at best on a short week with the 49ers playing the Seahawks on Thursday.

  • Will likely miss some time

    Coach Kyle Shanahan said Monday that Givens (knee) will likely miss some time, Eric Branch of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

    Analysis: Givens, who was knocked out of Sunday's blowout win over the 49ers, is still undergoing testing, but the 49ers are hoping he suffered just an MCL injury and can return this season. If he's sidelined, Arik Armstead and T.Y. McGill would be the only available defensive tackles, so look for San Francisco to make a move soon to add depth to the interior of its defense.

  • Exits with injury Sunday

    Givens (knee) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Buccaneers, David Lombardi of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Givens went down with a knee injury that forced him into the medical tent early in the first quarter, according to Bridget Condon of NFL Network. The 25-year-old was then carted to the locker room shortly after. Givens' absence will leave Arik Armstead and T.Y. McGill as the 49ers' only available defensive tackles for the time being.

  • Remains in San Francisco

    Givens signed a one-year extension with the 49ers on Thursday, Jennifer Lee Chan of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

    Analysis: Givens appeared in 13 games with San Francisco in 2021, logging 17 tackles while also forcing a fumble. He's been a part-time player with the team each of the last two seasons and figures to maintain that role in 2022.

  • Activated for Week 8

    Givens (ankle) has been activated from IR ahead of Sunday's game with the Bears, Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

    Analysis: Givens was designated to return from IR earlier in the week and didn't have to wait long to get back into uniform. He's been out since Week 2 with the ankle injury and should immediately slide back into the rotation at defensive tackle.

  • Designated to return from IR

    The 49ers designated Givens (ankle) to return from injured reserve Wednesday, Jennifer Lee Chan of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

    Analysis: Givens sustained a serious high-ankle sprain in the 49ers' Week 2 win over the Eagles and has been on San Francisco's IR list since then. The 49ers now have a three-week window to activate the defensive tackle to their active roster or he'll stay on the team's injured reserve for the remainder of the year. Expect Kentavius Street to continue to play a key role for the 49ers' defensive line until Givens is activated.

  • Lands on IR

    The 49ers placed Givens (ankle) on injured reserve Saturday, Cam Inman of The San Jose Mercury News reports.

    Analysis: Givens suffered a high-ankle sprain against the Eagles in Week 2 and will be sidelined for at least three weeks with his move to IR. In his absence, expect Kentavius Street to play a more prominent role along the interior of San Francisco's defensive line while Givens recovers.

  • Dealing with high-ankle sprain

    Givens suffered a high-ankle sprain Sunday and will be "out for a while," per coach Kyle Shanahan, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Givens will miss Sunday's game against the Packers and could be out beyond that considering high-ankle sprains normally take multiple weeks to recover from. Kentavius Street is expected to play a more prominent role along the interior of San Francisco's defensive line while Givens recovers.

  • Injures ankle Sunday

    Givens (ankle) is questionable to return to Sunday's contest against the Eagles, Eric Branch of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

    Analysis: Givens injured his ankle during the first quarter of Week 1. If the 24-year-old is unable to return to the contest, expect Kentavius Street to see increased snaps for the rest of the contest.

  • Has exemption lifted

    The NFL lifted Givens' roster exemption Thursday.

    Analysis: Givens now returns to the fold after missing the 49ers' Week 14 loss to Washington while attending to a personal matter. The Penn State product earned his first career NFL start Week 12 against the Rams, collecting a fumble recovery in that contest. Givens may be right back in the lineup Sunday against Dallas, as starting defensive tackle D.J. Jones continues to deal with an ankle injury.

  • Exempt from 53-man roster

    Givens (personal) was granted a roster exemption Saturday, Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

    Analysis: Givens won't play in Sunday's game against Washington due to a personal matter, and he won't count against the 53-man roster, either. With D.J. Jones (ankle) doubtful, Javon Kinlaw and Kentavius Street are poised to start at defensive tackle in Week 14.

  • Won't play versus Washington

    Analysis: Givens will sit out for the first time this season. He has averaged 30.7 defensive snaps per game. Starting defensive tackle D.J. Jones (ankle) is considered doubtful, meaning Kentavius Street and Javon Kinlaw should handle heightened workloads Sunday.
