Fred Warner is set to return for the San Francisco 49ers as they prepare for the 2026 NFL season. With new defensive coordinator Raheem Morris at the helm, the team is expected to employ a more versatile defense featuring various personnel groupings and disguises. Warner, who missed most of last season due to injury, emphasized the changes that aim to surprise opposing offenses. The 49ers will also integrate new players into their defensive lineup, enhancing their strategy heading into the season.
