Concussion
January 17, 2025
Hufanga (concussion) finished with 38 tackles (20 solo) in seven active games in 2024.
ANALYSIS
Hufanga entered the season rehabbing a torn ACL suffered in Week 11 of the 2023 campaign. Things didn't get much better for the hard-hitting safety this year after appearing in just seven games due to a combination of ankle and wrist injuries before suffering a concussion in the 49ers' final contest. Hufanga will hit the open market as an unrestricted free agent after showing promise in four years with San Francisco.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2024
2023
Hufanga continued his ascension as one of the top safeties in the league in 2023 by recording 52 tackles and three interceptions across 10 games before suffering a torn ACL in Week 11. Personally trained by legendary safety Troy Polamalu, Hufanga boasts a similar combination of physical play with a nose for the football. Head coach Kyle Shanahan expects his starting safety to return to the field sometime during training camp, putting Hufanga in position to be an impact IDP player for the 2024 season.
Hufanga had a true breakout campaign in 2022, posting strong IDP numbers in the process (97 tackles, six turnovers and two sacks). The 23-year-old has been trained by legendary safety and fellow USC graduate Troy Polamalu, and the similarities showed both in aggressive style of play and flowing locks while patrolling the secondary. With veteran safety Jimmie Ward gone, Hufanga becomes the 49ers' top defensive back for this upcoming season.

February 10, 2025
Hufanga could be on Washington's radar as a free agent, Matt Barrows of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
The 25-year-old safety is coming off a couple injury-plagued seasons and ended the 2024 campaign by suffering a concussion in Week 18, but Hufanga was still productive when healthy. The Commanders will be looking to upgrade their secondary this offseason, and Washington's current general manager, Adam Peters, was in San Francisco's front office when Hufanga was drafted in 2021.
