All-Pro San Francisco 49ers linebacker Fred Warner was carted off the field in Sunday's game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers after he suffered a broken, dislocated right ankle midway through the first quarter. The injury will necessitate surgery and end Warner's season.

49ers coach Kyle Shanahan announced after the game that Warner dislocated and fractured his ankle. The injury will require season-ending surgery. Warner has missed only one game in his eight-year career, sitting out a game in 2021 with a hamstring injury. He played through a broken bone in his ankle last season.

The 49ers announced that Fred Warner will miss the rest of the 2025 season after suffering a broken and dislocated ankle on Sunday.

Pro linebacker Fred Warner said he feels at peace after he sustained a season-ending ankle injury in a 30-19 loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Sunday.

Missouri quarterback Beau Pribula is facing an uphill battle to return this season after suffering a serious ankle injury in Saturday’s 17-10 loss at Vanderbilt.
