49ers have lost nearly $27 million in player value to injuries in 2026

The San Francisco 49ers injury issues have been noticeably substantial compared to the rest of the league in 2026.

The San Francisco 49ers have endured nearly $27 million in player value loss due to injuries this season, ranking seventh in the NFL according to Stick to the Model's injury tracker. While this figure may not appear alarming compared to the league's most affected teams, their fifth-place ranking in starter games missed paints a different picture.

San Francisco has seen 41 starter absences, more than the Patriots, Panthers, Chargers, and Packers. Nick Bosa's calf injury and Mike Evans' Achilles tendinitis have been the biggest individual losses for the team, with both players missing several games. Other key players like Deebo Samuel have also been sidelined with injuries, forcing San Francisco to navigate through personnel turnover while maintaining a 6-1 record into Week 9.
