The 49ers' playoff hopes are still teetering even after get-right game against the Bears

After three straight losses, including back-to-back blowouts, the San Francisco 49ers needed a get-right game
DECEMBER 9, 2024 • Associated Press
Standout three-sack performance Gross-Matos (knee) recorded four tackles (all solo) and three sacks in Sunday's 38-13 blowout win over the Bears.
Impact Gross-Matos set a new personal best with a trio of sacks on Chicago's rookie signal-caller Caleb Williams. The 2020 second-round pick now has four sacks in four games since being activated from injured reserve in Week 11 against Seattle. Gross-Matos will continue to get extra run for as long as star DE Nick Bosa (oblique) remains sidelined.

Will play vs. Seahawks Gross-Matos (knee) is active for Sunday's game against the Seahawks, Lindsey Peters of the 49ers' official site reports.
Impact Gross-Matos was a full practice participant all week and was activated from injured reserve Saturday. He'll boost the 49ers' depth at defensive end behind starters Leonard Floyd and Nick Bosa.
NOVEMBER 17, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Activated from injured reserve The 49ers activated Gross-Matos (knee) from injured reserve Saturday, Matt Barrows of The Athletic reports.
Impact Gross-Matos has missed the Niners' past five games but has a chance to play Sunday against the Seahawks. In three appearances before his injury, Gross-Matos recorded one solo tackle and one QB hit across 81 defensive snaps.

Yetur Gross-Matos Activated from IR, Luter Jr. & Wishnowsky Placed on IR, Other Moves Ahead of #SEAvsSF The San Francisco 49ers made a series of roster moves ahead of their Week 11 matchup against the Seattle Seahawks
NOVEMBER 16, 2024 • 49ERS.COM
Questionable for Week 11 Gross-Matos (knee) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Seahawks, Lindsey Pallares of the 49ers' official site reports.
Impact While Gross-Matos has been tagged as questionable, he is trending towards being activated from injured reserve ahead of Sunday's game after logging full practices all week. If he's able to play Sunday, he'll serve in a rotational role at defensive end behind starters Nick Bosa (hip) and Leonard Flloyd.
NOVEMBER 16, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Logs full practice Wednesday Gross-Matos (knee) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice.
Impact Wednesday was Gross-Matos' first full practice since his 21-day practice window to return from injured reserve opened Nov. 6. If he's able to practice without limitations over the next two days, he could be activated off IR ahead of Sunday's game against the Seahawks.
NOVEMBER 14, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Won't play Week 10 Gross-Matos (knee) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against Tampa Bay.
Impact Gross-Matos has missed the 49ers' last four games while on injured reserve due to a knee injury he picked up in Week 4 against the Patriots. His 21-day practice window to return from IR opened Wednesday, but he won't play Sunday after logging limited practices all week. Gross-Matos will have to log consecutive full practices before being activated off IR, and his next chance at suiting up will be Week 11 against the Seahawks on Sunday, Nov. 17.
NOVEMBER 9, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Designated to return The 49ers designated Gross-Matos (knee) to return from injured reserve Wednesday.
Impact Gross-Matos has missed the 49ers' last four games after likely sustaining a knee injury in the team's Week 4 win over the Patriots. However, the opening his 21-day practice window Wednesday suggests that the 26-year-old is almost past the issue. Gross-Matos must still be activated to the 49ers' active roster to have a chance at suiting up in Week 10, when the team travels to Tampa Bay.
NOVEMBER 6, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Has successful surgery Gross-Matos underwent knee surgery Friday, Eric Branch of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.
Impact Gross-Matos was placed on IR on Saturday, so he actually had the surgery before that, although it was not reported at the time. The Penn State product suffered the injury in Week 4 and is expected to miss 4-to-8 weeks, with his earliest availability being Week 10 against the Buccaneers.
OCTOBER 7, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Placed on IR with knee injury The 49ers placed Gross-Matos (knee) on injured reserve Saturday, Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
Impact Gross-Matos was unable to practice all week after injuring his knee in Week 4 against New England. The injury appears severe enough to warrant a multi-week absence for the 2020 second-round pick. Gross-Matos will be forced to sit out for at least four regular-season games, and the earliest he can return is Week 10 against Tampa Bay. Robert Beal will serve as the 49ers' main rotational edge rusher behind starters Nick Bosa and Leonard Floyd.
OCTOBER 5, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Missing Week 5 Gross-Matos (knee) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Cardinals, David Lombardi of The San Francisco Standard reports.
Impact Gross-Matos played 40 total snaps (35 defensive and five on special teams) and recorded one tackle in Week 4's win over the Patriots, but it appears he sustained a knee injury in the process. The first-year 49er won't suit up in Week 5 after logging DNPs both Wednesday and Thursday, so expect Robert Beal to see additional work as San Francisco's top rotational edge rusher.
OCTOBER 4, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Returns to full practice Friday Gross-Matos (knee) practiced in full Friday and doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's Week 2 matchup with the Vikings.
Impact Gross-Matos didn't play against the Jets in Week 1 due to a knee injury that took place during San Francisco's preseason finale. He began this week as a non-participant in practice before advancing to a limited session Thursday and participating in full Friday. As such, Gross-Matos appears set to make his 2024 regular-season debut in Minnesota on Sunday.
SEPTEMBER 14, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Upgrades to limited Thursday Gross-Matos (knee) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice, Adam Caplan of SiriusXM NFL Radio reports.
Impact Gross-Matos missed San Francisco's Week 1 win over the Jets, and he opened this week as a DNP on Wednesday. He was at least able to practice in some capacity Thursday, and his participation in Friday's session will provide a better sense on whether he will play in Week 2 against the Vikings.
SEPTEMBER 12, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Opens week as DNP Gross-Matos (knee) did not practice Wednesday, Eric Branch of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.
Impact Gross-Matos continues to work through a knee injury sustained Aug. 23 in the 49ers' preseason finale. He has yet to participate in practice since the injury and he was sidelined for the 49ers' Week 1 victory over the Jets on Monday. Gross-Matos will have two more chances to practice Thursday and Friday ahead of Week 2 against Minnesota.
SEPTEMBER 11, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Won't play Monday Gross-Matos (knee) has been ruled out for Week 1 against the Jets, Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
Impact Gross-Matos logged back-to-back DNP's to start the week, and his next chance at suiting up will be Week 2 against the Vikings on Sept. 15. With Gross-Matos sidelined, Robert Beal will be called upon to provide additional depth at defensive end Monday behind starters Nick Bosa and Leonard Floyd.
SEPTEMBER 7, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Misses practice Thursday Gross-Matos (knee) did not practice Thursday, David Lombardi of The Athletic reports.
Impact Gross-Matos injured his knee in the Aug. 23 preseason finale. Fellow veteran Leonard Floyd has been dealing with a knee issue of his own, and Drake Jackson (knee) was placed on reserve/PUP to open the year. The Niners' edge rushing depth will be tested if one of Floyd or Gross-Matos can't play Monday night against the Jets.

The 49ers look to bounce back from another playoff heartbreak and win an elusive Super Bowl

The San Francisco 49ers once again head into the season following a deep playoff run that fell short of the ultimate goal
AUGUST 27, 2024 • Associated Press

The 49ers are hopeful that injuries to Floyd and Gross-Matos won't linger into the season

The San Francisco 49ers hope defensive ends Leonard Floyd and Yetur Gross-Matos will be healthy enough to play in the season opener after both players left the final exhibition gam...
AUGUST 25, 2024 • Associated Press
Avoids serious injury Gross-Matos is considered week-to-week after injuring his knee in Friday's preseason game against Las Vegas, Cam Inman of The San Jose Mercury News reports.
Impact Gross-Matos did not return to Friday's game after injuring his knee in the first quarter. Head coach Kyle Shanahan relayed Sunday that the injury isn't severe enough for Gross-Matos to start the regular season on injured reserve, per David Lombardi of The Athletic. However, given the week-to-week designation, Gross-Matos' status for Week 1 against the Jets is up in the air.
AUGUST 25, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Won't return to exhibition finale Gross-Matos (knee) has been ruled out from returning to Friday's preseason contest against the Raiders, Eric Branch of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.
Impact Gross-Matos suffered a knee injury in the first quarter and was evaluated in the medical tent. Though he has been deemed out for the remainder of the exhibition game, he was seen "moving around OK on the sideline," per Matt Barrows of The Athletic, so he may have avoided a serious injury. Fellow defensive end Leonard Floyd also hurt his knee in the contest and was similarly moving around fine later in the game despite being ruled out.
AUGUST 24, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Hurts knee in preseason finale Gross-Matos suffered a knee injury in Friday's exhibition contest against Las Vegas and is questionable to return, Jennifer Lee Chan of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
Impact The injury occurred in the first quarter when Gross-Matos' ankle got stuck as teammate De'Vondre Campbell tackled a ball carrier. One play later, fellow defensive end Leonard Floyd suffered a knee injury of his own and also had to leave the game. Both players have been deemed questionable to return, though considering the exhibition nature of the contest, it wouldn't be surprising if neither plays another down Friday.
AUGUST 24, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Signs with San Francisco The 49ers signed Gross-Matos to a two-year, $18 million contract Thursday.
Impact Gross-Matos was the 38th overall pick in the 2019 NFL Draft by the Panthers but never developed into a top-end pass rusher off the edge in Carolina. He registered just 13 sacks across four seasons, including a career-best 4.5 in 2023. Perhaps new Niners DC Nick Sorensen can get more out of the 26-year-old.
