San Francisco 49ers trade for Houston Texans offensive lineman Jarrett Patterson

The San Francisco 49ers acquired interior offensive lineman Jarrett Patterson from the Houston Texans in a trade finalized this week. In exchange for the former Notre Dame captain, the 49ers sent a 2027 seventh-round NFL draft pick to Houston. Patterson, a 2023 sixth-round draft choice, appeared in 38 games and started 20 for the Texans over his first three NFL seasons. The move addresses a need for additional depth along the 49ers' offensive line. As a collegiate player, Patterson earned honors as the 2022 offensive lineman of the year and maintained a record of allowing zero sacks during his tenure at Notre Dame. He now joins the San Francisco roster as the team moves into the upcoming phase of its season.
