                    Okuayinonu carved out a decent role with San Francisco in 2024 while filling in for injured rotation pieces. The Maryland product recorded 35 tackles, including 3.0 sacks, and a forced fumble across 16 games (432 defensive snaps). The 27-year-old's solid play earned him another one-year contract with the 49ers, with whom he likely will serve a similar depth role behind Nick Bosa, Mykel Williams and Bryce Huff.

                                    Limited in return to practice
Okuayinonu (ankle) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice, Eric Branch of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.
				ANALYSIS
Okuayinonu missed Wednesday's practice due to an ankle injury he picked up in Week 8 against the Texans, so his return to practice Thursday is a positive sign. He would avoid an injury designation ahead of Sunday's game against the Giants if he were to log a full practice Friday. Okuayinonu has logged 19 tackles (eight solo), including 1.0 sacks, over his last six games, and he has seen an increased role on defense after Nick Bosa sustained a season-ending torn ACL against the Cardinals in Week 3.
