  • Unavailable for MNF

    Flannigan-Fowles (neck) is inactive for Monday night's contest against New England, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.

    Analysis: Flannigan-Fowles was unable to participate at either of the team's first two sessions of the week before returning as a limited participant at Saturday's final practice prior to Monday Night Football. The linebacker is dealing with neck and knee injuries, and he will now be forced to miss at least one contest as a result. In his absence, Neville Hewitt and Zaire Barnes are top candidates to see an increase in workload at linebacker versus the Patriots.

  • Questionable for Week 13

    Flannigan-Fowles (neck) is listed as questionable ahead of Monday night's matchup against the Patriots, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.

The 29-year-old has appeared in seven games this season, recording 24 total tackles and one pass defensed. If he's inactive for the Week 13 contest, Neville Hewitt and Zaire Barnes could have expanded roles in the Giants' linebacker corps.

    Flannigan-Fowles is questionable to return to Sunday's NFC Championship Game against the Rams due to a knee injury.

    Analysis: Flannigan-Fowles suffered his injury in the first half, and it's not yet clear whether he'll be available later in the matchup. Dre Greenlaw (calf) also is questionable to return, so Azeez Al-Shaair and Mark Nzeocha should see increased playing time if both players remain sidelined.

  • Will start Week 8

    Flannigan-Fowles will get the nod at linebacker against the Bears on Sunday with Azeez Al-Shaair out with a concussion, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: The 25-year-old linebacker has registered five tackles through six games this season, but he will get his first extended work of the 2021 campaign Sunday. Tyrell Adams will likely operate as the backup for all three linebacker spots on San Francisco's defense.

  • Clean bill of health

    Flannigan-Fowles (concussion) wasn't listed on Wednesday's injury report.

    Analysis: Flannigan-Fowles will be ready for Sunday's season opener against the Lions. The 25-year-old linebacker will make most of his impact on special teams barring an injury to a starter.

  • In concussion protocols

    Flannigan-Fowles injured his head in practice Saturday and is currently in the league's concussion protocols, Jennifer Lee Chan of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

    Analysis: Flannigan-Fowles will miss at least the next day or so as he endures the league's concussion protocols. With the 24-year-old set to miss some time, teammate Jonas Griffith should see more reps in practice.

  • Clear of injury

    Flannigan-Fowles (hamstring) was not listed on San Francisco's injury report Thursday, Matt Barrows of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Flannigan-Fowles has been unable to suit up since Week 8 because of a lingering hamstring issue, but it looks like he is healthy enough to make his return to the lineup Week 13 against the Bills. There's no guarantee the 24-year-old will be active, however, as he's predominantly filled a special-teams role this season, fielding 84.9 percent of his overall snaps in that department.

  • Officially out

    Flannigan-Fowles (hamstring) will not play in Sunday's matchup with the Saints.

    Analysis: Flannigan-Fowles was unable to practice all week, rendering this decision unsurprising. His next chance to suit up will come in Week 12 versus the Rams, as the 49ers are on bye in Week 11. Look for Joe Walker to step up in his absence while he is sidelined.

  • Won't play Thursday

    Flannigan-Fowles (hamstring) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Packers, Chris Biderman of The Sacramento Bee reports.

    Analysis: The 24-year-old picked up the hamstring injury during Sunday's loss to the Seahawks, and he won't be able to play Thursday with the short week of preparation. Flannigan-Fowles is expected to fill the starting role at weakside linebacker with Kwon Alexander (ankle) shipped to New Orleans, but Joe Walker and Azeez Al-Shaair should fill that role versus Green Bay.
