According to Jordan Schultz, the 49ers are acquiring DE Keion White from the Patriots.
Tom Pelissero reports that the Patriots received a 2026 sixth-round pick, while New England is sending back a 2026 seventh-round pick in addition to White.
San Francisco has been searching for help at defensive end since Nick Bosa suffered his season-ending injury. White gives the 49ers a former second-round pick who fell out of favor under Patriots’ new HC Mike Vrabel.
White, 26, is a former second-round pick by the Patriots in the 2023 NFL Draft out of Georgia Tech. He’s in the third year of a four-year, $7,790,161 rookie contract that included a $2,665,572 signing bonus.
In 2025, White has appeared in five games for the Patriots and recorded six tackles and no sacks.
