  • 49ers' Tatum Bethune: Ankle injury not a concern

    Bethune (ankle) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice, per the NFL's injury report.

    Bethune aggravated an ankle injury during the 49ers' Week 16 win over the Colts on Monday. However, his full practice Wednesday indicates that the injury isn't considered a long-term issue and puts him on track to be available for Sunday's game against the Bears.

  • 49ers' Tatum Bethune: Exits game with ankle injury

    Bethune (ankle) is questionable to return to Monday's game against the Colts.

    Bethune missed the 49ers' last three games due to an ankle injury, but it's not clear whether he aggravated the injury or if it's new. While he's being evaluated by medical staff, veteran Eric Kendricks -- who was elevated from the practice squad to the active roster ahead of Monday's game -- has entered the game to serve as the 49ers' middle linebacker.

  • 49ers' Tatum Bethune: Ready to rock

    Bethune (ankle) is cleared for Monday's game against the Colts, Matt Barrows of The Athletic reports.

    Coach Kyle Shanahan said Bethune is "good to go" Saturday. The starting middle linebacker figures to resume handling his usual every-down role in his first return to action since Week 11. Prior to injuring his ankle, Bethune had racked up five straight games with double-digit tackles.

  • 49ers' Tatum Bethune: Limited again Friday

    Bethune (ankle) was a limited participant in Friday's practice, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.

    Bethune has now strung together consecutive limited practices and seems to be trending towards playing in Monday night's game against the Colts. The middle linebacker will have one more opportunity to attempt to upgrade to a full participant and avoid an injury designation ahead of Monday's game.

  • 49ers' Tatum Bethune: Returns to limited practice

    Bethune (ankle) will be limited at practice Thursday, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.

    Bethune last suited up in Week 11, but his ability to practice in some capacity Thursday suggests he has made progress in his recovery. He would return to the starting middle-linebacker role if cleared to play Monday against the Colts. Bethune has two more opportunities to upgrade to full participation in practice.

  • 49ers' Tatum Bethune: Slated to return to practice

    Head coach Kyle Shanahan relayed Monday that he expects Bethune (ankle) to return to practice for Week 16 prep, Matt Barrows of The Athletic reports.

    Bethune has missed the 49ers' last three game due to a right ankle sprain, but he appears to have progressed enough in his recovery to return to practice ahead of San Francisco's Week 16 tilt against Indianapolis on Monday, Dec. 22. The second-year linebacker was thrust into a starting role after Fred Warner (ankle - IR) suffered a season-ending injury in Week 6 against the Buccaneers, and it has been Curtis Robinson who has taken on the starting job in Bethune's absence.

  • 49ers' Tatum Bethune: Missing another game

    Bethune (ankle) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Titans, Cam Inman of The San Jose Mercury News reports.

    Bethune will miss a third consecutive game due to an ankle injury that he suffered in Week 11 against the Cardinals. Curtis Robinson will continue to start at middle linebacker due to the absences of Bethune and Fred Warner (ankle - IR). Bethune's next opportunity to play is Week 16 against the Colts on Monday, Dec. 22.

  • 49ers' Tatum Bethune: Remains unable to practice

    Bethune (ankle) did not practice Thursday.

    With consecutive DNPs to begin Week 15 prep, Bethune appears to be in real danger of missing his third straight game Sunday against the Titans. Should that be the case, Curtis Robinson would likely log another start at linebacker.

  • 49ers' Tatum Bethune: Not practicing Wednesday

    Bethune (ankle) is not participating in Wednesday's practice, Jennifer Lee Chan of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

    Bethune has not played since Week 11 due to a high ankle sprain, and even now coming off a bye week, he isn't ready to take the practice field. The starting linebacker will have two more opportunities to get back on the field as at least a limited participant ahead of Sunday's game against the Titans, but if Bethune is unable to play Week 15, Curtis Robinson will handle an expanded role on defense again.

  • 49ers' Tatum Bethune: Approaching return to action

    Bethune (ankle) is closing in on a return to action, Matt Barrows of The Athletic reports.

    Bethune has missed the team's last two contests while nursing a high-ankle sprain, and head coach Kyle Shanahan said Monday that the linebacker has "a chance" to play in Week 15 against the Titans following the team's bye week in Week 14. With Fred Warner (ankle) done for season, Bethune has taken over as the team's starting middle linebacker, so his return will be rather significant for San Francisco.

  • 49ers' Tatum Bethune: Out for Week 13

    Bethune (ankle) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Browns, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.

    Bethune suffered a high-ankle sprain in Week 11 and will miss his second consecutive contest. With Bethune sidelined, Curtis Robinson is expected to make another start at middle linebacker for the Niners.

  • 49ers' Tatum Bethune: Logs another DNP

    The 49ers listed Bethune (ankle) as a DNP on Thursday's practice report, Cam Inman of The San Jose Mercury News reports.

    Bethune is working through a right high-ankle sprain, which forced him to be sidelined for the 49ers' Week 12 win over the Panthers. He would give himself a chance to play against the Browns on Sunday with a return to practice Friday, but if he's ruled out for Week 13, then Curtis Robinson would likely start at linebacker for a second straight week.

  • 49ers' Tatum Bethune: Misses practice Wednesday

    Bethune (ankle) was absent from practice Wednesday, Matt Barrows of The Athletic reports.

    Bethune was forced to miss the team's Week 12 win over the Panthers due to a right high ankle sprain, and he has now been forced to miss the team's first practice session of the week. The linebacker will have two more chances to return to practice prior to Sunday's matchup with the Browns in Cleveland. If he can't go in Week 13, Curtis Robinson would likely step into a starting role at middle linebacker for a second week in a row.

  • 49ers' Tatum Bethune: Ruled out for Week 12

    Bethune (ankle) has been ruled out for Monday's game against Carolina, Cam Inman of The San Jose Mercury News reports.

    Bethune took over as the 49ers' starting middle linebacker in Week 7 after Fred Warner sustained a season-ending ankle injury against the Buccaneers in Week 6. However, Bethune suffered a high-ankle sprain against the Cardinals in Week 11, and the second-year linebacker will miss his first game of the regular season as a result. In his absence, Curtis Robinson will step up as the starting middle linebacker for Monday's game. Bethune will look to return to practice in at least a limited capacity ahead of the 49ers' Week 13 clash against the Browns.

  • 49ers' Tatum Bethune: Misses practice Thursday

    Bethune (ankle) did not participate at practice Thursday, Matt Barrows of The Athletic reports.

    Bethune sustained a right high-ankle sprain in the team's 41-22 victory over Arizona in Week 11, so his inability to practice to open the week comes as no surprise. The linebacker is fighting an uphill battle to play in Week 12, and he'll have two more chances to return to practice prior to Monday night's matchup with Carolina.

  • 49ers' Tatum Bethune: Diagnosed with high-ankle sprain

    San Francisco head coach Kyle Shanahan said that Bethune suffered a right high-ankle sprain in Sunday's 41-22 win over the Cardinals and is expected to miss multiple weeks, David Lombardi of SFStandard.com reports.

    Shanahan said that Curtis Robinson will be the next man up at middle linebacker for the 49ers, who are already without Fred Warner (ankle) for the rest of the season. Bethune had recorded double-digit tackles in five straight games prior to being injured in the first half versus Arizona. Though the 24-year-old linebacker looked poised to miss multiple games, Shanahan said that Bethune is expected to avoid a stint on injured reserve.

  • 49ers' Tatum Bethune: Exits with ankle injury

    Bethune (ankle) is questionable to return to Sunday's contest against the Cardinals, Jennifer Lee Chan of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

    Bethune suffered an ankle injury in the first half of the contest, and his status is now up in the air for the rest of the day. In his absence, Nick Martin and Curtis Robinson are top candidates to see an increase in workload at linebacker.
