Demetrius Flannigan-Fowles Injury News & Updates
Nov 14, 2025
Ready to rock
Flannigan-Fowles (pectoral) has no injury designation ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Packers.
ANALYSIS
The Arizona product upgraded from a limited practice session Thursday to a full go Friday, indicating that he's moved past his pectoral injury in time to play Sunday. Now fully healthy, Flannigan-Fowles is expected to operate as one of the Giants' top inside linebackers in Week 11.
Nov 13, 2025
Limited in practice
Flannigan-Fowles (pectoral) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Flannigan-Fowles popped up on Thursday's injury report with a pectoral injury and only managed to log a limited practice session. The starting inside linebacker's chances to play Sunday against the Ravens will likely depend on the quality of session he can log Friday. If the 29-year-old is unable to go, Zaire Barnes will likely get the start in Sunday's game.
Nov 11, 2025
Leading tackler vs. Bears
Flannigan-Fowles totaled seven tackles (five solo) during the Giants' loss versus the Bears on Sunday.
ANALYSIS
Flannigan-Fowles' seven tackles were tied with Tyler Nubin for the most on the team. The 29-year-old has been on a hot streak across his last two outings, racking up a combined 15 tackles (12 solo). He will look to keep this streak going during the team's Week 11 matchup versus the Packers.
Nov 9, 2025
Returns to Sunday's game
Flannigan-Fowles (pectoral) has returned to Sunday's game against the Bears, Art Stapleton of The Bergen Record reports.
ANALYSIS
Flannigan-Fowles briefly left Sunday's game due to a pectoral injury, but he has been cleared to return after being evaluated by medical staff. He drew the start at inside linebacker after the Giants placed Darius Muasau (ankle) on injured reserve Saturday.
Nov 9, 2025
Leaves with pec injury
Flannigan-Fowles has a pectoral injury and is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Bears, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
The inside linebacker had two tackles (one solo) at the time of his exit. Flannigan-Fowles was added to the injury report Thursday with a pectoral issue, though he was cleared in time to play in the game. Zaire Barnes should be next in line to replace him.
Nov 7, 2025
In line to suit up Sunday
Flannigan-Fowles (pectoral) does not carry an injury designation ahead of Sunday's game at Chicago, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Flannigan-Fowles was added to the Giants' injury report Thursday with a pectoral issue, but it looks like he'll be healthy for game action in Week 10. With Darius Muasau (ankle) out, Flannigan-Fowles projects for an expanded role at linebacker against the Bears on Sunday.
Nov 6, 2025
Added to injury report
Flannigan-Fowles (pectoral) was limited in practice Thursday. Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Flannigan-Fowles wasn't listed on Wednesday's injury report, so his pectoral issue may have surfaced during practice. If Darius Muasau (ankle) is not able to play Sunday versus the Bears, an opportunity to start at inside linebacker could present itself to Flannigan-Fowles, so both players' activity levels will need to be monitored at Friday's practice.
Oct 24, 2025
Returning in Week 8
Flannigan-Fowles (hamstring) has no injury designation ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Eagles, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
The Arizona product missed the Giants' last three games due to a hamstring injury, but following a week of limited practice sessions, he's in line to return Sunday. Flannigan-Fowles is now expected to serve as one of the team's top reserve inside linebackers while also contributing on special teams in the Week 8 contest.
Oct 17, 2025
Won't play in Week 7
Flannigan-Fowles (hamstring) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Broncos, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Flannigan-Fowles will now be sidelined for a third consecutive game after sustaining a hamstring injury in practice. While the 28-year-old remains out, expect Neville Hewitt to serve as the Giants' top reserve inside linebacker.
Oct 8, 2025
Missing more time
Flannigan-Fowles (hamstring) has been ruled out ahead of Thursday night's matchup against the Eagles, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
The 28-year-old out of Arizona is now in line to miss his second consecutive game due to a hamstring injury likely sustained in practice. With Flannigan-Fowles, Swayze Bozeman (ankle), Micah McFadden (foot) and Chris Board (chest) all ruled out for Week 6, the Giants' inside-linebacker corps consists of just Bobby Okereke and Darius Muasau.
Oct 4, 2025
Won't play in Week 5
Flannigan-Fowles (hamstring) has been downgraded and ruled out ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Saints, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Flannigan-Fowles was a late addition to the Giants' injury report, popping up as a limited participant Friday due to a hamstring issue. Although he was originally listed as questionable for the Week 5 contest, he won't travel with the team and has been ruled out. In Flannigan-Fowles' absence, Swayze Bozeman could see increased work as a reserve inside linebacker.
Sep 26, 2025
Ready for Week 4
Flannigan-Fowles (calf) has no injury designation ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Chargers.
ANALYSIS
The Arizona product missed each of the Giants' last two contests due to a calf injury, but it now appears he's moved past the issue. Flannigan-Fowles played 17 special-teams snaps and failed to record a stat in New York's Week 1 loss to the Commanders. He's likely to play a similar role in Week 4.
Sep 21, 2025
No go for Week 3
Flannigan-Fowles (calf) is inactive for Sunday night's contest against the Chiefs, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Flannigan-Fowles will be forced to miss a second consecutive game while nursing a calf injury. In his absence, Swayze Bozeman will likely see an increase in workload at reserve linebacker versus Kansas City.
Sep 12, 2025
Won't play Sunday
Flannigan-Fowles (calf) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Cowboys, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Flannigan-Fowles began the Giants' week of practice with a limited session before downgrading to DNPs on Thursday and Friday, making it no surprise that he'll be sidelined in Week 2. The first-year Giant played exclusively on special teams in Week 1, failing to record a stat. Chris Board figures to serve as New York's top reserve inside linebacker while Flannigan-Fowles is unavailable Sunday.
Mar 14, 2025
Lands in New York
The Giants signed Flannigan-Fowles to a contract Friday, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.
ANALYSIS
Flannigan-Fowles will compete for a special-teams role and reserve linebacker spot with his new team. He appeared in 12 regular-season games with the 49ers last season, recording 17 combined tackles and two passes defended, including one interception.
Feb 18, 2025
Gets let go
Flannigan-Fowles was released by the 49ers on Tuesday, Eric Branch of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.
ANALYSIS
Flannigan-Fowles has been a regular on special teams while seeing spot duty on defense for the 49ers in each of the last five seasons. The Arizona product finished the 2024 campaign with 17 combined tackles, and two passes defended, including one interception.
Jan 4, 2025
Goes on IR due to calf injury
Flannigan-Fowles (calf) was placed on the 49ers' injured reserve Saturday
ANALYSIS
Flannigan-Fowles was already ruled out for Sunday's regular-season finale against the Cardinals due to a calf injury he suffered against the Lions in Week 17. His placement on IR, along with Spencer Burford (calf), makes room on the 49ers' active roster for Alex Barrett and DaShaun White, who were both signed off the practice squad Saturday. Flannigan-Fowles mostly played on special teams and will finish his fifth year in the NFL with 17 tackles (10 solo) and two pass defenses (including one interception) across 12 regular-season games.
Jan 3, 2025
Likely out for Week 18
Flannigan-Fowles (calf) is listed as doubtful ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Cardinals, Bo Brack of GoPHNX.com reports.
ANALYSIS
The Arizona product sustained a calf injury in the 49ers' Week 17 loss to the Lions and didn't practice all week, so it's no surprise he's expected to be sidelined Sunday. Flannigan-Fowles has appeared in 12 games for San Francisco this season, recording 17 total tackles and two passes defended, including one interception, across 146 defensive snaps. If he's unable to play in the Week 18 divisional matchup as expected, Jalen Graham will likely see more snaps with the Niners' first-team defense.
Dec 31, 2024
Managing calf issue
Flannigan-Fowles is considered day-to-day due to a calf injury, Matt Barrows of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Flannigan-Fowles appears to have picked up the injury in Monday's Week 17 loss to Detroit. The 28-year-old logged 15 defensive snaps in the contest, finishing with a pair of tackles. Given his status as day-to-day, Flannigan-Fowles has some risk of missing Sunday's season finale against the Cardinals.
Dec 11, 2024
Clear to return Thursday
Flannigan-Fowles (knee) doesn't have an injury status for Thursday's Week 15 tilt against the Rams.
ANALYSIS
Flannigan-Fowles sat out each of San Francisco's past two contests due to a knee injury, but he appears set to return Thursday after logging an LP/LP/FP practice progression this week. It's not clear how much he'll play against Los Angeles, though, since Flannigan-Fowles didn't log any defensive snaps in any of his past five contests.
Dec 8, 2024
Inactive Sunday
Flannigan-Fowles (knee) is listed as inactive for Sunday's matchup with the Bears.
ANALYSIS
Flannigan-Fowles drew a questionable designation prior to Sunday's game due to a knee injury. He was seemingly trending in the right direction after he upgraded from a DNP Wednesday to a limited practice session Thursday. As a result, look for him to take on his usual workload at linebacker.
Dec 6, 2024
Questionable for Week 14
Flannigan-Fowles (knee) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Bears, Jennifer Lee Chan of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
ANALYSIS
The 28-year-old linebacker from Arizona upgraded from a DNP on Wednesday to a limited session Thursday, suggesting he's trending in the right direction ahead of Sunday's contest. However, if Flannigan-Fowles can't play through his knee injury in Week 14, Dee Winters will likely see increased snaps with the 49ers' first-team defense.
Dec 1, 2024
Unavailable for Week 13
Flannigan-Fowles (knee) is inactive for Sunday night's contest against the Bills, Lindsey Pallares of the 49ers' official website reports.
ANALYSIS
Flannigan-Fowles suffered a knee injury in Week 12 versus the Packers and he'll now be forced to miss at least one contest as a result. In his absence, Dee Winters stands to see an increase in workload at strongside linebacker versus Buffalo.
Nov 29, 2024
Iffy to suit up in Week 13
Flannigan-Fowles is questionable to play Sunday against the Bills due to a knee injury, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Flannigan-Fowles hurt his knee in the third quarter of Sunday's loss to Green Bay and was unable to return to the contest. He missed San Francisco's first two practices of the week but was able to log a limited session Friday, giving himself a chance to suit up against Buffalo. If Flannigan-Fowles is unable to suit up, Dee Winters could see increased defensive snaps.
Nov 24, 2024
Won't return Sunday
Flannigan-Fowles (knee) has been ruled out for the rest of Sunday's game against the Packers, Lindsey Pallares of the 49ers' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Flannigan-Fowles will not return to Sunday's game after injuring his knee in the third quarter. Dee Winters will fill in for Flannigan-Fowles at linebacker alongside Fred Warner and De'Vondre Campbell.
Nov 24, 2024
Questionable to Return
Flannigan-Fowles (knee) is questionable to return to Sunday's matchup versus the Packers.
ANALYSIS
Flannigan-Fowles got hurt in the third quarter of Sunday's matchup leaving his status for the rest of the game up in the air. With Flannigan-Fowles sidelined, Dee Winters is now in at linebacker in his place.
Oct 16, 2024
Logs full practice Wednesday
Flannigan-Fowles (calf) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice.
ANALYSIS
Flannigan-Fowles' participation Wednesday follows him being seen on the practice field during Monday's bonus session. The linebacker hasn't played since Week 4, but he appears to have a good chance of returning to action Sunday versus Kansas City. If Flannigan-Fowles does return Sunday, Dee Winters could see fewer defensive snaps.
Oct 14, 2024
Back at practice
Flannigan-Fowles (calf) was spotted practicing Monday, David Lombardi of The San Francisco Standard reports.
ANALYSIS
Flannigan-Fowles had missed the 49ers' last two games due to a calf injury, but Monday's return to practice indicates he could almost be past the issue. Once the Arizona product has returned to full health, he is expected to serve as San Francisco's top strongside linebacker.
Oct 9, 2024
Ruled out for Week 6
Flannigan-Fowles (calf) has been ruled out ahead of Thursday night's matchup against the Seahawks, Eric Branch of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.
ANALYSIS
The 28-year-old linebacker is now in line to miss his second consecutive game due to a calf injury. While Flannigan-Fowles remains sidelined, expect Dee Winters to see increased work with San Francisco's first-team defense.
Oct 7, 2024
Likely to remain out
Flannigan-Fowles (calf) is unlikely to play Thursday against the Seahawks, Lindsey Pallares of the 49ers' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Flannigan-Fowles missed the team's Week 5 loss to the Cardinals, and with the 49ers on a short week, the Arizona product isn't expected to recover in time for Thursday's game against the Seahawks. Assuming he does remain out, Dee Winters will likely be tasked with an increased workload in the divisional matchup.
Oct 4, 2024
Won't play Sunday
Flannigan-Fowles (calf) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Cardinals, David Lombardi of The San Francisco Standard reports.
ANALYSIS
Flannigan-Fowles downgraded from a limited practice Wednesday to a DNP on Thursday, so it's no surprise that the 28-year-old won't suit up Sunday. With Flannigan-Fowles sidelined, expect Dee Winters to see additional reps with San Francisco's first-team defense.
Mar 15, 2024
Back with San Francisco
The 49ers re-signed Flannigan-Fowles on a one-year deal Friday.
ANALYSIS
Flannigan-Fowles will remain in San Francisco after spending the first four years of his career with the 49ers. The veteran linebacker has appeared in 61 games during his time in San Francisco, primarily contributing on special teams (1,100 of 1,566 career snaps on special teams). Expect Flannigan-Fowles to compete for a similar role once again this offseason.
Nov 17, 2023
Cleared to face Tampa Bay
Flannigan-Fowles (ankle) doesn't have an injury designation and has been cleared to play Sunday against the Bucs, Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
ANALYSIS
The backup linebacker has played just 45 defensive snaps this season but is a fixture on special teams for the Niners.
Nov 12, 2023
Won't suit up
Flannigan-Fowles (ankle) is inactive Sunday against the Jaguars.
ANALYSIS
Flannigan-Fowels still appears to be dealing with an ankle injury originally suffered in Week 7 against the Vikings. His absence will have a greater impact on San Francisco's special-teams unit than on defense.
Oct 25, 2023
Full participant in walkthrough
Flannigan-Fowles (ankle) was a full participant in San Francisco's walkthrough practice Wednesday, Nick Wagoner of ESPN reports.
ANALYSIS
Flannigan-Fowles appears to be good to go after suffering an ankle injury during Monday's loss to the Vikings. The 27-year-old has logged three tackles (one solo) in seven games this season while playing primarily on special teams.
Oct 23, 2023
Done for night
Flannigan-Fowles (ankle) has been ruled out for the remainder of Monday's game versus Minnesota, Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
ANALYSIS
Flannigan-Fowles suffered an ankle injury in the second half of the game and he'll now remain sidelined until the conclusion. In his absence, Dee Winters could see a slight increase in usage at outside linebacker.
Mar 16, 2023
Staying in San Fran
Flannigan-Fowles re-signed with the 49ers on a one-year contract Thursday.
ANALYSIS
Flannigan-Fowles will return for a fourth season in San Francisco. The linebacker played primarily on special teams last season, racking up 22 tackles.
Jan 12, 2023
Logs full practice Thursday
Flannigan-Fowles (neck) participated in a full practice Thursday.
ANALYSIS
Flannigan-Fowles picked up a neck injury during the 49ers' Week 18 win over Arizona and was unable to return. The linebacker was labeled day-to-day Monday and after logging a full practice Thursday, Flannigan-Fowles seems to be on track to play in San Francisco's Wild Card matchup Saturday against Seattle.
Jan 9, 2023
Viewed as day-to-day
Flannigan-Fowles (knee) is considered day-to-day, Josh Dubow of The Associated Press reports.
ANALYSIS
Flannigan-Fowles' practice participation will be worth monitoring as the 49ers prepare to host a playoff game against the Seahawks on Saturday. The day-to-day label suggests the 49ers are hopeful he'll be available for his usual role on special teams.
Jan 8, 2023
Leaves with injury
Flannigan-Fowles (neck) has exited Sunday's game against the Cardinals, Lindsey Pallares of the 49ers' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Flannigan-Fowles headed to the locker room after a visit to the team's medical tent. The 26-year-old primarily contributes on special teams, so his absence shouldn't impact the defense. However, it will still lighten their depth at linebacker.
May 24, 2022
Absent during OTAs Tuesday
Flannigan-Fowles was not spotted during the 49ers' OTA sessions on Tuesday, Cam Inman of The San Jose Mercury News reports.
ANALYSIS
Flanningan-Fowles suffered a knee injury in the first half of San Francisco's loss in the NFC Championship Game against the Rams that kept him sidelined for the remainder of the contest. The 2020 undrafted free agent agreed to a one-year extension with the 49ers in March, so his absence from Tuesday's session was likely not due to any contract disputes with the team. Flannigan-Fowles currently slots in as San Francisco's backup strongside linebacker behind Azeez Al-Shaair - who went through shoulder and knee surgery this offseason -, so Flannigan-Fowles' presence in offseason training sessions will be worth monitoring moving forward.
Mar 13, 2022
Sticks with San Francisco
Flannigan-Fowles signed a one-year extension with the 49ers on Friday.
ANALYSIS
Flannigan-Fowles appeared in all 17 regular season games (two starts) and all three playoff contests for the 49ers in 2021. The second-year linebacker played 154 defensive snaps and totaled 32 tackles (16 solo).
Jan 30, 2022
Won't return Sunday
Flannigan-Fowles (knee) has been ruled out for the remainder of Sunday's NFC Championship Game against the Rams.
ANALYSIS
Flannigan-Fowles went down with a knee injury during the first half of Sunday's matchup and didn't record any defensive stats prior to his departure. It's not yet clear whether he'll be available if the 49ers advance to the Super Bowl.
Jan 30, 2022
Sustains knee injury
Flannigan-Fowles is questionable to return to Sunday's NFC Championship Game against the Rams due to a knee injury.
ANALYSIS
Flannigan-Fowles suffered his injury in the first half, and it's not yet clear whether he'll be available later in the matchup. Dre Greenlaw (calf) is also questionable to return, so Azeez Al-Shaair and Mark Nzeocha should see increased playing time if both players remain sidelined.
Oct 31, 2021
Will start Week 8
Flannigan-Fowles will get the nod at linebacker against the Bears on Sunday with Azeez Al-Shaair out with a concussion, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
The 25-year-old linebacker has registered five tackles through six games this season, but he will get his first extended work of the 2021 campaign Sunday. Tyrell Adams will likely operate as the backup for all three linebacker spots on San Francisco's defense.
Sep 9, 2021
Clean bill of health
Flannigan-Fowles (concussion) wasn't listed on Wednesday's injury report.
ANALYSIS
Flannigan-Fowles will be ready for Sunday's season opener against the Lions. The 25-year-old linebacker will make most of his impact on special teams barring an injury to a starter.
Aug 11, 2021
In concussion protocols
Flanngian-Fowles injured his head in practice Saturday and is currently in the league's concussion protocols, Jennifer Lee Chan of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
ANALYSIS
Flannigan-Fowles will miss at least the next day or so as he endures the league's concussion protocols. It is uncertain if the linebacker has a serious concussion or not. With the 24-year-old set to miss a little time, teammate Jonas Griffith should see more reps in practice.
Dec 3, 2020
Clear of injury
Flannigan-Fowles (hamstring) was not listed on San Francisco's injury report Thursday, Matt Barrows of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Flannigan-Fowles has been unable to suit up since Week 8 because of a lingering hamstring issue, but it looks like he is healthy enough to make his return to the lineup Week 13 against the Bills. There's no guarantee the 24-year-old will be active, however, as he's predominantly played a special-teams role this season, fielding 84.9 percent of his overall snaps in that department.
Nov 14, 2020
Officially out
Flannigan-Fowles (hamstring) will not play in Sunday's matchup with the Saints.
ANALYSIS
Flannigan-Fowles was unable to practice all week, rendering this decision unsurprising. His next chance to suit up will come in Week 11 versus the Rams. Look for Joe Walker to step up in his absence while he is sidelined.
Nov 3, 2020
Won't play Thursday
Flannigan-Fowles (hamstring) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Packers, Chris Biderman of The Sacramento Bee reports.
ANALYSIS
The 24-year-old picked up the hamstring injury during Sunday's loss to the Seahawks, and he won't be able to play Thursday with the short week of preparation. Flannigan-Fowles is expected to fill the starting role at weakside linebacker with Kwon Alexander (ankle) shipped to New Orleans, but Joe Walker and Azeez Al-Shaair should fill that role versus Green Bay.
Nov 1, 2020
Hurts hamstring Sunday
Flannigan-Fowles was forced out of Sunday's game versus the Seahawks with a hamstring injury, Curtis Crabtree of Sports Radio 950 KJR Seattle reports.
ANALYSIS
Flannigan-Fowles was injured while covering a kick return. He was expected to start at weak-side linebacker in place of Kwon Alexander (ankle), but now Joe Walker and Azeez Al-Shaair will see more work going forward.
