2025 Fantasy Outlook
Gross-Matos spent the first half of the 2024 season in and out of the trainer's room following a preseason knee injury. The 26-year-old had a standout performance against the Bears in Week 14 in which he sacked Caleb Williams thrice, but the rest of his outings were forgettable. Gross-Matos remains under contract for the 2025 campaign, but he needs to shine in the preseason in order to make the team after the 49ers added several talents at edge rusher this offseason.

Won't suit up vs. Titans
Gross-Matos (hamstring) is out for Sunday's game versus Tennessee, Cam Inman of The San Jose Mercury News reports.
ANALYSIS
Gross-Matos was just designated for return to practice from San Francisco's injured reserve list Thursday, but he'll have to spend at least one more game on the sideline as he nurses his hamstring injury. With Sam Okuayinonu (ankle) also out, Bryce Huff and 2023 second-rounder Keion White project as the 49ers' starters on the edge in Week 15.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Shifting to new role
Gross-Matos is moving to outside linebacker to accommodate the Panthers' transition to a 3-4 base defense, Augusta Stone of the team's official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Gross-Matos took a significant step forward in both his workload and production in 2022, posting 54 tackles across 806 defensive snaps. The Panthers will likely be hoping to get more out him as a pass rusher, as he has yet to surpass 3.5 sacks in any of his three seasons in the NFL. Gross-Matos has been praised by Pro Bowl teammate Brian Burns this offseason, who noted that the Penn State product has done well digesting his new responsibilities in coverage.
