While San Francisco 49ers have had a lot of success this year, they also have one of the worst pass rushers in the league.
After 15 weeks, 49ers recorded just 16 sacks, the fewest in the league. That's six fewer sacks than the New York Jets, and Baltimore Ravens who has the next least amount.

While trading for Keyon White and signing Clelin Ferrell helped, San Francisco could still use more to give them a better chance to make the postseason in 2025.
Luckily for them, another pass rusher just hit the market. Miami Dolphins Released Matthew Judon on Wednesday, making him a free agent.
Judon, 33, was selected in the fifth round of the 2016 NFL Draft by the Baltimore Ravens out of Grand Valley State. In 10 seasons between the Baltimore Ravens (2016-20), New England Patriots (2021-23), Atlanta Falcons (2024) and Miami Dolphins (2025), he made four Pro Bowls and recorded 429 tackles, 177 quarterback hits, 72 sacks and nine forced fumbles.
In 13 games for the Dolphins this year, he recorded 19 tackles and three quarterback hits while playing 41% of his defensive snaps.

Judon is not the pass rusher he once was, but he can certainly be part of a rotation that desperately needs help in San Francisco.
