49ers Trade for Khalil Davis from Texans

The San Francisco 49ers made a last-minute trade, acquiring defensive tackle Khalil Davis from the Houston Texans for a 2026 seventh-round pick. Davis, a former sixth-round pick of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, brings valuable depth to the 49ers' defensive line, especially after the injury of Pro Bowler Javon Hargrave, who is out for the season. While Davis has had a mixed career, he is known for his run defense and versatility, which the 49ers need as they navigate injuries on their defensive front. The 49ers' general manager John Lynch indicated that the team is also looking forward to the return of key players, including star running back Christian McCaffrey, who is expected to make his season debut soon. Currently, the team sits at 4-4, struggling with injuries and a defense that has not performed up to expectations. Despite the lack of major moves, the 49ers are hopeful that returning players can significantly bolster their chances this season.
