Patrick McMorris: Everything you need to know

The 49ers signed McMorris to a one-year deal Tuesday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports. McMorris spent the 2025 campaign on the Cardinals' practice squad but didn't appear in any games. The 24-year-old will now spend the remainder of the offseason competing for a spot on San Francisco's final roster.

The Cardinals signed McMorris (calf) to the practice squad Tuesday, Darren Urban of the team's official site reports. McMorris logged one solo tackle across eight regular-season games for the Dolphins in 2024. He mostly played on special teams and would serve in that role if the Cardinals elevate him to the active roster.

McMorris (foot) is wearing a boot on his right foot Friday, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports. It's not clear when or how McMorris hurt his foot, but the injury will likely keep him out of the Dolphins' preseason finale Friday versus Tampa Bay. The rookie safety had been turning heads in camp, and he played in both of Miami's first two exhibition matchups, including in the preseason opener against Atlanta when he tallied a team-high eight tackles (seven solo) -- including two tackles for loss -- and a defensed pass. McMorris has been on the bubble for a spot on the 53-man roster, and it's not clear how the foot injury will impact his standing in that regard.
