What happened: San Francisco 49ers are adding veteran pass rusher Matt Judon to the practice squad, per @JFowlerESPN. The arrangement includes an early path to elevation to the active roster. The move pairs Judon again with Raheem Morris.
Why it matters: San Francisco has shuffled depth pieces in September with C.J. West to injured reserve and additions at defensive tackle and receiver. Judon arrives with 72 career sacks and four Pro Bowls. Familiarity with Morris gives the staff a known edge option without a scheme reset.
By the numbers: Judon: 72 career sacks, four Pro Bowls.
What to watch: Elevation timing is next, with a game-day call-up the early test of how quickly Morris uses him in the edge rotation.
