Adding to their woes, defensive tackle Kalia Davis suffered a high-ankle sprain on Sunday against the Arizona Cardinals and landed on the injured reserve list.
According to the player's agent, the 49ers are reportedly signing defensive tackle Taylor Stallworth to the practice squad in response to the deteriorating depth. This move, and any other roster moves, will likely be officially announced later today.
Stallworth (6-2, 300) entered the league as an undrafted free agent with the New Orleans Saints in 2018, having played with the Houston Texans and Tennessee Titans this season. The Titans placed him on the injured reserve list on October 25 before releasing him on November 14.
Stallworth, 28, has amassed 52 tackles, seven tackles for a loss, 14 quarterback hits, 4.5 sacks, and a pass defensed in 58 game appearances with two starts through his six NFL seasons. In addition to the Saints, Texans, and Titans, Stallworth made game appearances with the Indianapolis Colts and Kansas City Chiefs.
