49ers signed DE Matt Judon, formerly of the Bills.

28 September 2026

Judon will join the 49ers’ practice squad with a “early chance for elevation,” according to ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler. The 34-year-old pass-rusher failed to record a sack in the 14 games he appeared in last season and has tallied 9.5 sacks since the 2023 season. As injuries continue to mount for the 49ers, it wouldn’t be surprising if Judon was activated as early as this week when the Niners host the Broncos.
