What happened: The San Francisco 49ers signed defensive lineman Viliami Fehoko Jr. to the practice squad. The addition lands during the 2026 regular season.

Why it matters: The move stocks another developmental defensive lineman without using an active-roster spot. Practice-squad depth gives San Francisco

By the numbers: Drafted No. 129 overall in the fourth round of the 2023 NFL Draft out of San José State (as of Sept. 29, 2026).

What to watch: Watch for a game-day elevation if San Francisco needs fresh defensive-line legs.
