  • Ruled out

    Al-Shaair (knee) will not return Sunday against the Patriots.

    Analysis: Al-Shaair had three tackles before exiting late in the first half. It's hard to know if his inability to return is a result of the injury or the lopsided score of the game. More clarity on the severity of his injury could come after the game or later in the week.

    Al-Shaair left Sunday's contest against New England due to a knee injury and is questionable to return.

    Analysis: Al-Shaair's injury occurred in the first half, and he was announced as being questionable to return shortly before halftime. Prior to Week 6, the linebacker had played every snap for the Texans through five games.

    Al-Shaair recorded eight tackles (five solo) and two passes defensed during Sunday's 23-20 win versus the Bills.

    Analysis: Al-Shaair now has at least eight tackles in three of the Texans' last four games. He's on pace for his second 100-tackle season in as many years, and he profiles as a solid IDP play heading into a Week 6 matchup at New England.

    Al-Shaair is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Bills with an illness.

    Analysis: A late addition to the Week 5 injury report, Al-Shaair looks as though he could be at risk of sitting out Sunday if he doesn't shake off the illness leading up to the 1 p.m. ET kickoff. The linebacker has produced 29 tackles and one sack through the first four weeks of the season.

  • Double-digit tackles Sunday

    Al-Shaair recorded 10 total tackles (nine solo), including two tackles for loss, during Sunday's 34-7 loss to the Vikings.

    Analysis: Al-Shaair was one of the few bright spots on a Texans defense that allowed a season-high 34 points in Week 3, leading the game in total tackles. The first-year Texan has impressed during his first three games in Houston, recording 25 total tackles, including 1.0 sacks, and defending one pass on 169 defensive snaps. Expect Al-Shaair to continue being a viable IDP option as Houston hosts Jacksonville in Week 4.

  • Limited Wednesday

    Al-Shaair (shin) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice.

    Analysis: Following an impressive 10-tackle performance in Sunday night's win over the Bears, Al-Shaair appears to be dealing with a shin injury. His practice participation Thursday and Friday will provide a clearer indication of his availability for Week 3, as the Texans take on the Vikings.

  • Double-digit tackles vs. Chicago

    Al-Shaair tallied 10 tackles (six solo), including 1.0 sacks, in Sunday's 19-13 win over the Bears.

    Analysis: Al-Shaair tied Jalen Pitre for second-most tackles on the Texans on Sunday behind Henry To'oTo'o. Al-Shaair has played in every defensive snap in the first two games of the season, and the six-year linebacker has been integral to the Texans' defense, which has allowed the third-fewest yards per game (254.0) to start the season.

  • Strong season in Tennessee

    Al-Shaair recorded 163 total tackles (84 solo), two sacks, four passes defended and one fumble recovered across 17 games with the Titans in 2023.

    Analysis: Al-Shaair joined the Titans on a one-year deal before the 2023 season and showed the ability to handle a full defensive workload. He was on the field for a career-best 1,048 snaps and topped 100 tackles for the second time in five professional seasons. Al-Shaair will be entering his age-26 campaign, and even at a position that has been devalued in the modern NFL, he should be able to land a relatively significant contract.

  • Good to go Sunday

    Al-Shaair (illness) is active for Sunday's contest against the Texans.

    Analysis: Al-Shaair was a late addition to the Titans' injury report Saturday after picking up an illness, but he'll suit up for Sunday's AFC South clash. In his first year in Tennessee, Al-Shaair has a career-high 124 tackles (64 solo), including 2.0 sacks, in 13 games this season.

    Analysis: Al-Shaair has been a key member of the Titans' insider linebacker corps, tallying double-digit stops on six occasions this season. His absence would benefit the likes of Devin Singletary and Dameon Pierce and would force Luke Gifford and Otis Reese into more significant roles.

  • Another double-digit tackle outing

    Al-Shaair logged 10 total tackles (seven solo) in Monday night's 28-27 win over the Dolphins.

    Al-Shaair (ankle) did not practice Wednesday, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.

    Analysis: Al-Shaair was able to play 100 percent of the team's defensive snaps in last Thursday's loss to the Steelers, so it's not clear when the 26-year-old picked up the injury.

    Al-Shaair had nine tackles (three solo), including one sack, in Sunday's 27-3 loss to the Browns.

    Analysis: Al-Shaair led Tennessee's linebacker corps in tackles Sunday and was tied with cornerback Kristian Fulton on the day. Al-Shaair played a pivotal role in limiting the Browns to just 78 rushing yards on 31 carries (2.5 YPC), but the Titans struggled to contain Deshaun Watson, who threw for 289 yards and two touchdowns on 81.8 percent passing.

He posted 3.7 tackles per game in 2022, though his best season came in 2021, when he played 655 snaps and averaged 7.8 stops per contest.

  • Role decrease in 2022

    Al-Shaair finished the 2022 regular season with 44 tackles (20 solo) and no auxiliary stats across 12 games with the 49ers.

    Analysis: Al-Shaair was coming off of a career year in 2021 (102 tackles), but an injury early in the season cost him his starting job alongside Fred Warner. Dre Greenlaw took over the weakside linebacker position, leaving Al-Shaair to man the Sam position on base formations only. The 25-year-old will now become an unrestricted free agent, providing great athleticism and coverage ability for potential suitors this upcoming offseason.

    Al-Shaair (knee) was designated to return from IR on Monday, Josh Dubow of The Associated Press reports.

    Analysis: Since Al-Shaair suffered a sprained MCL during San Fransisco's Week 3 contest versus Denver, he was placed on injured reserve and has missed each of the team's last five games as a result. However, Monday's designation allows a 21-day window for the 25-year-old to rejoin the 49ers' active roster and hopefully make a return against the Chargers following San Fran's Week 10 bye.

  • Lands on IR

    The 49ers placed Al-Shaair (knee) on injured reserve Monday.

    Analysis: Al-Shaair was expected to miss 6-to-8 weeks after spraining his MCL during the team's Week 3 loss to the Broncos. In a corresponding move, the 49ers filled his roster spot by promoting veteran wideout Willie Snead to the active roster. In Al-Shaair's absence, Demetrius Flannigan-Fowles is expected to garner an increased role next to Fred Warner and Dre Greenlaw in San Francisco's linebacker corps.

  • Sidelined 6-to-8 weeks

    49ers coach Kyle Shanahan said Monday that Al-Shaair will miss 6-to-8 weeks with a sprained MCL, Jennifer Lee Chan of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

    Analysis: Al-Shaair will likely sit out until at least Week 12 after sustaining a sprained MCL during San Francisco's loss to Denver on Sunday. The fourth-year linebacker recorded 102 tackles, two sacks, five passes defended, one interception and two fumble recoveries over 13 games last season. Al-Shaair also tallied 11 tackles while playing just 65 defensive snaps over the first three games, and his absence will leave San Francisco's linebacker corps with an important role to fill moving forward.

    Analysis: Al-Shaair exited Sunday's matchup in the second quarter, and it seems possible that he'll be forced to miss additional time following his diagnosis.

    Analysis: Shanahan did qualify that Al-Shaair would be brought along slowly, but it's good news either way for the fourth-year linebacker out of Florida Atlantic. He saw 13 starts and registered 102 tackles in 2021, so he should be considered very likely to start next to Fred Warner in 2022.

  • Not ready for OTAs

    Al-Shaair (shoulder) is running on the sidelines but not participating in OTAs, David Lombardi of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Al-Shaair had shoulder and knee surgery earlier in the offseason and has yet to recover enough to take part in OTAs. The three-year pro had a breakout season in 2021, recording 100 tackles, two sacks and five passes defended while also forcing one fumble, recovering two others and intercepting one pass. He should be recovered in time to fully participate in training camp, and be an integral part of the 49ers' linebacker unit in 2022.

  • Signs new deal

    Al-Shaair signed his restricted free-agent tender Monday, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Al-Shaair had a breakout 2021 campaign, recording 102 tackles (58 solo), two sacks, five passes defensed, an interception, a forced fumble and two fumble recoveries. All of which matched or became career highs. The 24-year-old went undrafted out of Florida Atlantic and spent the majority of the previous two seasons contributing on special teams. Al-Shaair will look to build on his 2021 success next season.

  • Receives second-round tender

    Al-Shaair, a restricted free agent, received a second-round contract tender from the 49ers on Tuesday, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: Any interested teams will now need to surrender a second-round pick in order to sign Al-Shaair. The 2019 UDFA out of Florida Atlantic saw most of his action on special teams across his first two NFL seasons, but he took a major step forward last season and totaled 102 tackles (58 solo), two sacks, one interception and one forced fumble in 13 games.

    Al-Shaair (knee) was a full practice participant Wednesday, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Al-Shaair was limited at Tuesday's practice but had no limitations at Wednesday's session. He sat out the final two games of the regular season but returned for the playoff win over Dallas and had five tackles (three solo) while playing 54 percent of the defensive snaps.

  • Logs limited practice

    Al-Shaair (knee) logged a limited practice Tuesday, Kelana Martin of the 49ers' official site reports.

    Analysis: Al-Shaair missed the last two games of the season for San Francisco before returning for their wild-card win over the Cowboys on Sunday. However, he did play a season-low 54 percent of the snaps. Whether his limited practice was more of a maintenance decision or he's truly in jeopardy of missing Saturday's divisional-round game with the Packers remains to be seen. His practice level will be worth monitoring as this week progresses.

    Al-Shaair (knee) is active for Sunday's wild-card matchup against the Cowboys.

    Analysis: Al-Shaair hasn't played since Week 16 and didn't practice Friday after being limited during the first two sessions of the week, so his status comes as a bit of a surprise. Nonetheless, the 49ers will have back one of their top tacklers (102 through 13 games) when they face Dak Prescott and the Cowboys' high-powered offense.

  • DNP on Friday

    Al-Shaair (knee) did not practice Friday and is questionable for Sunday against the Cowboys.

    Analysis: Al-Shaair was able to log limited practices Wednesday and Thursday, but it seems he may have taken a step back by not practicing Friday. However, it's possible the team didn't want to push him ahead of Sunday's game after a three-week absence. With Marcell Harris (Achilles) also questionable, the 49ers' linebacker unit could be weakened against the Cowboys, although both did miss the 49ers' victory over the Rams in Week 18.

    Al-Shaair (knee) was a limited participant at Wednesday's practice.

    Analysis: The linebacker missed each of the 49ers' last two games while dealing with a knee issue, making Wednesday's limited effort a positive sign for his chances to play Sunday against the Cowboys.

    Analysis: Al-Shaair was expected to miss the last two games of the season, although he was considered questionable for Sunday. After not practicing at all this week, he will miss a pivotal game that will help determine whether the 49ers will make the playoffs. With Al-Shaair out, Curtis Robinson will likely see extra work.

    Analysis: Al-Shaair was expected to miss the final two games of the regular season due to his knee injury, and he was held out of practice this week. Coach Kyle Shanahan isn't yet sure whether the linebacker will be able to play, but it's encouraging that he has a chance to suit up in Week 18.

    Analysis: Al-Shaair suffered a knee sprain in Thursday's loss to the Titans. His chances to play again this season will likely depend on if the 49ers can secure a playoff spot. In his expected absence, Marcell Harris and Demetrius Flannigan-Fowles are candidates to see expanded roles.

    Al-Shaair suffered a knee injury Thursday against the Titans and will undergo an MRI on Friday, Eric Branch of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

    Analysis: Al-Shaair exited the game in third quarter, and coach Kyle Shanahan confirmed the injury after the game. Any game action that Al-Shaair is forced to miss would be a serious blow to San Francisco's defense, as he's racked up an impressive 102 total tackles across 13 games this season. That said, the severity of the injury is currently unknown, with more clarity to come after test results are announced.

    Analysis: Coach Kyle Shanahan said Monday that Al-Shaair would likely be a game-time decision for Thursday's matchup, so it's not very surprising to see him carry a questionable designation. He was limited at practice Monday and Tuesday, while Marcell Harris should see increased work if Al-Shaair is unavailable.

    Coach Kyle Shanahan said Monday that Al-Shaair's (elbow) status for Thursday's game against the Titans likely won't be decided until kickoff, David Lombardi of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Shanahan said he's "holding out hope" that Al-Shaair will be able to give it a go after sitting out Sunday's win over the Falcons. The linebacker is just four tackles shy of 100 and will almost certainly reach that threshold if given the green light to suit up come Thursday.

    Al-Shaair (elbow) is inactive for Sunday's game against Atlanta.

    Analysis: Al-Shaair was doubtful for the game after failing to log a practice throughout the week. It will mark his second absence of the season and also leaves a significant void in San Francisco's defense, as Al-Shaair has racked up 96 tackles across 12 games this season.

    Al-Shaair recorded 16 tackles (11 solo) and a half-sack in Sunday's 30-23 loss to the Seahawks.

    Analysis: Both Fred Warner (hamstring) and Dre Greenlaw (abdomen) were sidelined Sunday, leaving Al-Shaair to serve as the 49ers' top linebacker. The 23-year-old was up to the task, setting new career highs in tackles (16) and sacks (0.5). Al-Shaair was already a starter alongside Warner this season, and he is currently on pace to break the century mark in combined tackles for the first time in his career (86 total tackles through 11 games).

    Al-Shaair had eight tackles (seven solo) and a fumble recovery in Sunday's 34-26 win over Minnesota.

    Analysis: Both Fred Warner (hamstring) and Dre Greenlaw (groin) left Sunday's game and neither returned, leaving Al-Shaair as the 49ers' top option at linebacker. The athletic coverage backer could see a big uptick in IDP value if both of his teammates miss any time (which seems like a realistic possibility). Al-Shaair's first chance to start at the Mike position will be against Seattle in Week 13.

  • Nine tackles in loss

    Al-Shaair produced nine tackles (four solo) and one pass deflection during Sunday's loss to the Cardinals.

    Analysis: Al-Shaair returned from a one game-absence to produce another solid outing against the Cardinals. The 24-year-old linebacker has recorded at least seven tackles in five of seven contests this season and has 52 total tackles. His tackle production will likely continue to offer fantasy managers a high-floor option in IDP leagues.

    Al-Shaair (concussion) no longer carries an injury designation and should play Sunday against the Cardinals.

    Analysis: Al-Shaair was able to practice in full all week after missing the 49ers' Week 8 win over Chicago. His return will be welcomed, as he has logged more than 90 percent of the snaps every week he's played since the season opener. Al-Shaair should slide back into his starting role as the 49ers' strong-side linebacker.

While it's uncertain if the linebacker has cleared concussion protocols, there is optimism Al-Shaair will be able to return against the Cardinals with Wednesday's full practice effort.

    Analysis: Al-Shaair has shaken off the knee sprain he sustained early in training camp.

    Analysis: Coach Kyle Shanahan said that team doctors are optimistic about Al-Shaair's health, which could bode well for his timetable to return. If he's able to get healthy without missing much time, Al-Shaair may be able to secure a starting role alongside Dre Greenlaw and Fred Warner.

  • Posts 35 tackles as backup

    Al-Shaair finished the 2020 season with 35 tackles (22 solo), an interception and a forced fumble across 16 games.

    Analysis: Al-Shaair spent the majority of the year as a backup and special-teams contributor, only topping 58 percent of defensive snaps once (Week 17). The third-year pro is a well-rounded linebacker who could reach IDP relevance if given an opportunity to start. That said, Al-Shaair is a restricted free agent who is well-liked by the organization, so returning as a backup to Fred Warner and Dre Greenlaw is a strong possibility for him in 2021.

  • Will face Rams

    Al-Shaair is active for Sunday's matchup against the Rams.

    Analysis: Al-Shaair's activation bolsters San Franciso's linebacking corps, and his services may be needed on the defensive side with Demetrius Flannigan-Fowles (hamstring) being ruled out at the weakside linebacker spot. Joe Walker is poised to step into the starting role at that position, but Al-Shaair could be in line for increased playing time. Over 10 appearances this season, Al-Shaair has earned three starts while fielding 30-plus defensive snaps on three different occasions.

  • Secured backup role

    Al-Shaair recorded 18 tackles (11 solo) over 15 games during the 2019 regular season.

    Analysis: Al-Shaair was picked up by San Francisco after a serious knee injury caused him to go undrafted out of Florida Atlantic. The 22-year-old cracked the 53-man roster out of camp, and showed enough to the coaching staff to stick around for the entire campaign. Al-Shaair is under contract for two more years, so he will compete for a backup role behind projected starters Kwon Alexander, Fred Warner and Dre Greenlaw.

    Analysis: Al-Shaair wasn't able to participate in Wednesday's practice, so Thursday's limited session represents tangible progress as he works through the league's five-step concussion protocol. The starting linebacker participated in non-contact drills Thursday, according to Matt Barrows of The Athletic. If Al-Shaair doesn't receive full clearance in time for Sunday's tilt against the Cardinals, expect Mark Nzeocha to play an expanded role on defense.
