Lions' Emmanuel Moseley: Slated to sign with Lions
Rotowire
The Lions and Moseley (knee) agreed to terms Tuesday on a one-year, $6 million contract, ESPN's Adam Schefter reports.
Moseley entered the league as an undrafted free agent out of Tennessee and started 33 games in five seasons for the 49ers, developing into an every-down outside corner the last two years. His 2022 season was cut short in Week 5 when Moseley blew out his ACL and MCL. He should be at or nearing full health by the time training camp starts.

49ers' Emmanuel Moseley: Set for season-ending surgery
Rotowire
San Francisco coach Kyle Shanahan confirmed Monday that Moseley will undergo surgery after suffering a torn ACL in his left knee during Sunday's win over the Panthers, Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
Moseley appears set to land on injured reserve as he recovers from impending ACL surgery, though Shanahan did not specify when the cornerback would undergo this procedure. The 25-year-old cornerback played nearly every defensive snap over the first five games of the season. The loss of Moseley will leave San Francisco's secondary even more undermanned after safety Jimmie Ward sustained a fractured hand during Sunday's win, which will sideline him for an unspecified amount of time.

49ers' Emmanuel Moseley: Feared to have sustained torn ACL
Rotowire
Moseley is feared to have sustained a torn left ACL during Sunday's win over Carolina, Jennifer Lee Chan of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
Moseley sustained a knee injury while breaking up a pass late in Sunday's victory, and initial tests point toward a significant injury. He was on crutches in the locker room after the game and was unable to put any weight on his left leg. He'll presumably undergo further testing in the coming days to confirm his diagnosis, but he'll be forced to miss significant time if he's ultimately confirmed to have a torn ACL.

Rotowire
Moseley (hamstring) participated in the 49ers' full-team sessions during practice Monday, David Lombardi of The Athletic reports.
Moseley returned in full to practice Monday for the first time since straining his hamstring during practice Aug. 8. The fifth-year cornerback, who totaled 42 tackles and a career-high 11 passes defended over 11 starts last year, figures to reprise this significant pass-coverage role alongside a new running mate in Charvarius Ward (groin) this regular season.

49ers' Emmanuel Moseley: Won't be back before Week 18
Rotowire
Coach Kyle Shanahan said Monday that Moseley (ankle) won't be back until Week 18 at the earliest, Eric Branch of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.
Moseley's eligible to return from IR as early as Week 17 against Houston, but Shanahan says he won't be ready by then. If Moseley's back for the season finale against the Rams, he could use that game as an opportunity to knock off some rust before the playoffs, assuming the 49ers are able to make it.

49ers' Emmanuel Moseley: Placed on injured reserve
Rotowire
Moseley (ankle) was placed on IR on Saturday, Matt Barrows of The Athleticreports.
Moseley's move to IR is not shocking, as head coach Kyle Shanahan said he'd likely miss "several weeks" Dec. 6. With Dontae Johnson (personal) also out Sunday against the Bengals, Deommodore Lenoir and Ambry Thomas will likely be left to pick up the slack. Moseley will be eligible to return for Week 17 against the Texans.

49ers' Emmanuel Moseley: Injures ankle Sunday
Rotowire
Moseley (ankle) is questionable to return to Sunday's contest against the Seahawks, Keiana Martin of the 49ers' official site reports.
Moseley has been a starter in the 49ers' secondary since Week 3, so if he is unable to return, it would be a big blow to their defense. Deommodore Lenoir is operating across from Josh Norman during Moseley's absence.

Moseley (hamstring) is active for Sunday's matchup versus the Cowboys.

49ers' Emmanuel Moseley: Missing another game
Rotowire
Moseley (hamstring) is inactive for Sunday's matchup against Washington.
San Francisco will again be without Moseley and K'Waun Williams (ankle) for Week 14, a discouraging update after the secondary surrendered four passing TDs and 375 passing yards to Buffalo's Josh Allen on Monday Night Football last week. Moseley never seemed particularly likely to suit up against Washington, having been unable to return to practice as even a limited participant Wednesday, Thursday or Friday.

49ers' Emmanuel Moseley: Missing more time
Rotowire
Moseley (hamstring) was a nonparticipant during Wednesday's practice.
Moseley missed Monday night's game against Buffalo with the hamstring issue, and he appears still hampered by the injury. The Tennessee product has been a solid cornerback this season when healthy, racking up 46 tackles (33 solo), eight pass breakups and an interception through nine games. If Moseley wants to take the field for Sunday's game against Washington, he'll likely need to log some practice time either Thursday or Friday.

Moseley (concussion) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice, Chris Biderman of The Sacramento Bee reports.
Moseley has missed two games with a concussion, but he's making progress through the league's concussion protocol. If he can elevate to full participation by Friday, the 24-year-old cornerback has a good chance to play Sunday against the Rams.

49ers' Emmanuel Moseley: Expected back at practice soon
Rotowire
Kyle Shanahan said that Moseley (concussion) recently visited a specialist and "has a good chance" to practice this week, Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
Moseley has missed back-to-back games due to a concussion sustained Week 3, but it looks as though he's now making progress toward a return. Getting back to practice in even a limited capacity would be a significant step in the right direction for Moseley, though he'll need to garner full medical clearance before returning to game-action.
