Rest-of-Season Projections
2025 Fantasy Outlook
Warner is arguably the most straightforward projection among high-profile linebackers. He has missed one game across his seven-year career and has never had fewer than 118 tackles in a season, while recording between 130 and 137 tackles in his last four campaigns. There's no reason to expect him to slow down in 2025, as he'll remain an every-down player thanks to his excellence in both rush defense and pass coverage. Warner is among the most reliable players at his position. Read Past Outlooks
Does it all vs. Saints
Warner recorded 11 total tackles (seven solo), one pass defended, one forced fumble and one fumble recovery in Sunday's 26-21 win over the Saints.
ANALYSIS
Warner paced San Francisco's defense in total tackles for the second consecutive time in Sunday's win, opening his 2025 campaign with 19 total tackles through two games. The NFL's highest-paid inside linebacker also made an incredible play on Alvin Kamara in the third quarter in which he forced and recovered a fumble. As the 49ers prepare to face the Cardinals in Week 3, Warner is projected to remain one of the NFL's premier defensive playmakers.

Warner is the epitome of stability at the linebacker position, as he's tallied at least 115 tackles in every season of his career and has three straight seasons of at least 130 stops. He has always excelled in coverage in addition to stopping the run, but Warner has taken on additional responsibility as a defender against the pass in the last two seasons. He's managed a combined 21 passes defensed in that span, and he picked off four passes in 2023. That may not be repeatable, but Warner is among the safest projections at linebacker and is a well-rounded source of production.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Closing in on extension
Warner and the 49ers appear to be close to working out a contract extension, Jennifer Lee Chan of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
ANALYSIS
The two sides were reported to be far apart in negotiations last month, but after San Francisco got new deals squared away with tight end George Kittle and quarterback Brock Purdy, locking up the team's top linebacker appears to be the next order of business. Warner has two years left on his current contract but no guaranteed money, so an extension would provide the 28-year-old with additional security while lowering his cap hit for the Niners. A new deal would likely also make Warner the league's highest-paid linebacker, with an AAV that tops the $20 million per season Roquan Smith got from the Bears in 2023.
